Tyler Baum shows 'it factor' in No. 8 UNC baseball's 11-0 win over Winthrop

Posted Mar 1, 2017
The moment Tyler Baum touched his feet to the rubber Tuesday, he made himself at home. Baum was about to begin the first start of his college career for the No. 8 North Carolina baseball team, but he came out throwing strikes like a seasoned veteran in UNC’s 11-0 win over Winthrop. “He’s got that ‘it’ factor; he didn’t look nervous at all,” coach Mike Fox said.
