ACC Baseball Notes


Mar 12, 2019, 11:07 AM

The opening weekend of ACC play included series sweeps by Clemson and NC State, and the 2,000th career coaching win for Florida State head coach Mike Martin … Martin became the first NCAA head coach to register 2,000 wins in any sport when the Seminoles turned back Virginia Tech, 5-2, in the rubber game of the teams’ league series opener … In front of a crowd of 5,506 in Tallahassee anxious to witness the milestone victory, Drew Mendoza broke a 2-2 tie with an RBI single in the seventh inning, and J.C. Flowers sealed the win with an eighth inning home run and his second save of the year.

Wolfpack Keeps Rolling
NC State took three straight games from Pitt – including a 4-3 win in the series opener and a 6-5 victory in Sunday’s finale – to move to 15-0 on the year, 3-0 in ACC play … This year’s team now holds the record for the best start to a season in school history and is one of two remaining unbeaten teams in NCAA Division I baseball, along with Arizona State … NC State’s 15-game winning streak is also the program’s longest since 2013, when the 2013 squad also won 15 consecutive games … NC State is 7-0 thus far in one-run games this season.

Tigers Terrific Against Tar Heels
Clemson also got off to a 3-0 start in ACC play with its first three-game series sweep of North Carolina since 1977 … UNC entered the series at 12-1 and ranked as high as No. 3 nationally … The Tigers’ sweep included a pair of one-run walk-off wins, including a 5-4 win in Sunday’s finale on Logan Davidson’s two-out, two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth … Clemson had also trailed by a run in the bottom of the ninth of Friday’s series opener before pulling out the win with a pair of runs, the second and decisive of which scored on a balk.

Busy Midweek Slate
Seven ACC teams remain ranked in at least one major weekly poll, with Florida State and NC State ranked 1-2 nationally by Collegiate Baseball … ACC teams have 20 midweek non-conference games slated, including several matchups of ranked teams (Florida State at Florida, Duke at East Carolina on Tuesday, Ole Miss at Louisville, Coastal Carolina at Clemson on Wednesday).
