NC State will be back in action next weekend for a three-game series against North Carolina at Doak Field at Dail Park. The teams will play at 6:30 p.m. Friday, 2 p.m. Saturday, and 1 p.m. Sunday. Friday and Sunday's games will be on ACCNX while Saturday's contest will be on ESPNU. There will also be an audio stream on WKNC 88.1 and the Varsity Network App for all three games.

Sweep them again Pack !

Hope Tommy is ok and can play!

The UNC series seems to be when the casual State baseball fans start to pay attention every year. If we keep the offense clicking and just play decent on defense I like like chances. Hope the guys play loose.

M O O D knowing that we'll be playing in front of a sold out crowd tomorrow and Saturday.

Very few tickets remaining for Sunday. #GoPack pic.twitter.com/dhyJMWjkF0

Weather not looking great for tomorrow night. Storms in and around the area from 4-8 or so. Wonder if they'll even try to get it in or play a DH Saturday.

A Saturday double header would be very inconvenient for me, so go ahead and pencil it in.

NC State baseball (29-13, 11-9 ACC) will close out a seven-game home stand this weekend when it welcomes Tobacco Road rival North Carolina (25-17, 8-13 ACC) for a three-game series at Doak Field at Dail Park.

The teams will play Friday at 6:30 p.m., Saturday at 2 p.m. and Sunday at 1 p.m. Friday and Sunday's games will be broadcast on ACCNX while Saturday's contest will air on ESPNU with Kevin Fitzgerald and Gaby Sanchez on the call.

I am planning to photograph two of the games from the UNC series this website this weekend. Hopefully, the storms tonight miss the area. I am keeping my fingers crossed we get the game in tonight, but it is looking like weather may be an issue at the time the game is supposed to start.

parking could be interesting

What are we thinking on weather folks? Trying to decide whether to go or not.

Storms are building now in Raleigh and it is starting to thunder. We will see how it goes, but would not be surprised if they try for a double-header tomorrow.

A lot of rain and thunder in Greensboro.

I feel like if they were going to move it, they would have announced by now considering the traffic issues they mentioned earlier.

Radar looked like there would be a few hours between squall lines so once the one over western Wake passes, probably get in 2+ hours of ball before a potential pause.

Pea-sized hail and high winds hitting in North Raleigh now, just south of Wake Forest. Really bad cell moving through. Still time for it to get out of here before next line moves through in another hour or so. Hail has been falling for a couple of minutes.

That, unfortunately, does not sound very fun for me as a fan driving a good ways to the game in traffic.

Hope they can play tonight. Rough weather out there though

No doubt, I actually live about 3 hrs away but work had me in the area already or I probably would have missed tonight.

We're here at Doak Field for a much-anticipated matchup between @NCStateBaseball and Carolina. First pitch set for 6:30@benellis81 pic.twitter.com/LJ8bIl6nXX

Whitaker is going to need to find his out pitch to put guys away.

De-fense.

Swinging at some dumb pitches so far.

There we go Tommy!

I didn't think Tommy was going to see a single pitch in the zone and on 3-2 the pitcher was dumb enough to give him something over the plate

Why did Josh just stand there and watch after that contact? Seemed like a weird play like there was some other contact but I'm streaming and can't rewind.

It was out over the plate and Tommy was just in front of it and hit it on the end of the barrel. Good hitters can do that.
