Cajuns’ Eric Carter goes with the flow

LAFAYETTE — Whatever feels good for senior right-hander Eric Carter in the bullpen on any given night, that’ll be the pitch he’ll rely on when he takes the mound.

He reckoned it might’ve been the humid air Tuesday night that made his breaking ball a little bit sharper than usual. No matter the circumstance, it was going to take a larger role than usual.

Carter took over in the eighth inning of a blow out win against Tulane and blew away the Green Wave batters. He faced eight of them, and five struck out, including the last batter of the game who was frozen by a knee-buckling breaking ball.
