Pitching struggles hurt UNC in series against Virginia Tech
Posted Apr 20, 2015
Coming into the team’s series against Virginia Tech (19-21, 8-12 ACC), the Tar Heels’ (24-15, 10-10 ACC) normal weekend starters — Zac Gallen, J.B. Bukauskas and Benton Moss — had combined for an overall record of 9-3 and an ERA of 2.95. But after a powerful Hokie lineup hit both Gallen and Bukauskas, UNC found itself in an unfamiliar position and had to rely on unconventional methods to salvage splitting the series with Virginia Tech, 3-8 and 11-10.
