The Notre Dame Fighting Irish baseball team entered the weekend against the Boston College Eagles looking to keep their strong home record going, having played to a 12-1 record in South Bend on the season so far. The #12 ranked Irish dropped the first game of the series in a rare struggle from John Michael Bertrand, but the offense was able to pick him up in the final two games to earn the series win.
Game 1: Notre Dame 4 (26-10, 11-8) - Boston College 7 (17-26, 4-18)
Win: Joe Mancini, BC (3-3)
Loss: John Michael Bertrand, ND (6-1)
Save: Brendan Coffey, BC (4)
Boston College did all of their damage in game one in a two inning stretch, but it was enough to earn them the win.
