Brett Kinneman blows save, gets game-winning sac fly...no really

Wednesday’s afternoon tilt between NC State and Charlotte at the Doak at Dail started innocently enough, with just one run scored between the two clubs through the first five and a half innings, but then, as things will do in a midweek college baseball game, things got weird. After the Pack took a five-run lead in the bottom of the sixth, Elliott Avent decided to turn to an outfielder to hold the lead with predictable results. The 49ers put up a six-spot before the experiment mercifully came to an end. Alas, the Pack plated four in the eighth to win 9-6 and mutiny was, for now, quelled.
