Blue Devils lose at Georgia Tech despite four homers | News & Observer

Georgia Tech had a hot start and then held off No. 10 Duke 9-6 in the opener of their ACC baseball series in Atlanta.

The game was delayed more than two hours in the first inning because of lightning in the area and did not end until early Friday morning.

The Blue Devils had a season-high four homers, two by Kennie Taylor, but fell to 17-10 in the ACC and 30-12 overall. The loss clinched the ACC Coastal Division title for North Carolina, which topped Virginia Tech 9-1 on Thursday to improve its ACC record to 20-8.
