Chad Flack's homer powers North Carolina's offense

Posted Jun 11, 2007

Third baseman Chad Flack, mired in a hitting slump for much of the season, belted a towering two-run homer over the scoreboard in center field, putting the Heels ahead 6-4 in the seventh inning in front of a standing-room-only crowd of 2,925. UNC added a run on Dustin Ackley's RBI single in the eighth and two more in the ninth, and closer Andrew Carignan blanked the Gamecocks over the final four innings for a 9-4 victory in the last game played at this 35-year-old ballpark.
