It just wasn’t the Diamond Heels’ day in Omaha on Tuesday.
After Monday night’s game was postponed due to delays in the Oregon State-Washington game, North Carolina and Mississippi State were pushed to Tuesday morning. Things got off to a great start for the Tar Heels as they plated a run on a sac fly in the bottom of the first inning.
But after that? Well, it was all Mississippi State.
The game was a pitcher’s duel for most of it with UNC starter Austin Bergner and Mississippi State starter Konnor Pilkington were dealing early on.
