Let the boys swing, seems like JT is the only one on the team who can bunt

Well, we did have like three straight bunt hits last weekend. Hard to bunt against a dude that throws 98 though. Older guys also are typically better at it, most dudes that were high school stars didn't doa lot of bunting, gotta re learn how to do it well.

Green Gone!

So happy Green is starting to really swing the bat. So much potential.

Might be able to get out of here without using Villaman for a third straight day

All it took was me turning the channel to March madness for a little

Brooms!

SWEEP! Huge for the confidence of these young guys with tough series to come. Through three conference series last year we were 1-8, this year 4-4. Still lots of room to get better, but hopefully it's starting to come together.

Brooms brooms brooms

Good sweep by the guys. Starting to come together and already better off than we were at this time last year. Have to remember we have a very young team and they are going to have their struggles either at the plate or in the field. The best hitters of all time only get 1 hit out every 3 at bats. Remember that when you start to criticize these guys and there has been a lot early in the season.

Let them play themselves into a good season. Pitching seems to be holding up for the most part. Fielding will hopefully come around some and the bats can be very deadly, but there will be times of struggle for all of them. We have sort of had that team slump for the last 3 or 4 weeks.

GO PACK!

Massive sweep to get us back to .500 in the league and give us some confidence after facing three top-15 opponents to start ACC play.

Any idea who we might throw vs ECU?

My guess is Adams or Harrison.

Awesome job Wolfpack Baseball.

NC State baseball (15-8, 4-4 ACC) completed its series sweep over No. 12 Georgia Tech (16-9, 4-5 ACC) on Sunday afternoon with a 6-1 victory at Doak Field at Dail Park.

The result extended the Wolfpack's win streak to four, and it has now won five of its last six games. Additionally, this is the team's first series sweep over a ranked opponent since May 14-16, 2021, at No. 16 Pittsburgh.

NC State's offense combined for 10 hits on Sunday, highlighted by multi-hit performances from Tommy White and Payton Green who both went 2-for-4 at the plate with a home run apiece. Green's home run was his second of the weekend and fourth of the year, while White ranks second in the NCAA with 12 home runs.

For the third-straight game of the series, Georgia Tech got on the board first when Tim Borden II sent a leadoff home run over the left field wall in the third inning to take a 1-0 lead. This was starting pitcher Logan Whitaker's first run of the year he had given up, as he went 15.0 innings in four starts without allowing a run to score.

The Pack threatened in the fourth and fifth innings, looking to bring the game-tying run across home plate. In the fourth JT Jarrett reached on a fielder's choice and Will Marcy doubled to left field to put runners on second and third, but Georgia Tech managed to get out of the inning unscathed. In the fifth Cozart tried to score from second on LuJames Groover III's single up the middle after drawing a leadoff walk, but he was called out on the play at home to end the inning.

NC State took its first lead of the game in the sixth, plating a pair of runs to go up 2-1. Josh Hood and White started the frame with back-to-back singles, and after a wild pitch put them in scoring position Jarrett pulled off the squeeze play to allow Hood to knot the score at 1-1. Another wild pitch in the inning brought White home for the go-ahead run.

In the eighth White and Green both homered to drive in a combined four runs and extend NC State's lead to 6-1.

Starting pitcher Logan Whitaker tossed 5.1 innings, surrendering one run on three hits and tallying three strikeouts. Through his first four starts of the season, Whitaker has yielded just six hits and surrendered just one earned run in 18.1 innings pitched.

The trio of Justin Lawson (1-1), Canaan Silver and Garrett Payne combined for the final 3.2 innings of the contest and kept the Yellow Jackets at bay, allowing just one runner to reach base.

The Pack's bullpen over the weekend was lights out, allowing just one run to score in 13 innings of work. Additionally, the bullpen did not issue a walk and tallied 20 strikeouts.

Marcy and Groover extended their reached based streaks to a team-best eleven games, and Groover extended his hit streak to a team-high eight games.

NC State will be back in action Tuesday when it travels to East Carolina for a midweek contest, with first pitch set for 6:30 p.m. at Clark-Leclair Stadium in Greenville, N.C. The game will be broadcast on ESPN+ and there will be an audio stream on WKNC 88.1 and the Varsity Network App.

.@NCStateBaseball completed the sweep of Georgia Tech on Sunday.

Avent: "This year, [we started] 1-4 with not a veteran club and it is hard to dig out of some holes. This was a big weekend."

Justin Lawson looked good today and Logan Adams was dynamite Friday. Carson Kelly is growing more and more each time he hits the bump and Baker Nelson is starting to get back in shape from his injury.

Those are some good arms to have as the season moves forward.

*edited to add that I forgot about Canaan Silver as well. He's been slingin' it pretty well himself. Good to have that veteran lefty.

Edit- already posted. Great weekend

Nice!!
