NC State got into the soft underbelly of the UNC-Charlotte bullpen in a midweek game at BB&T Ballpark, staking itself to a 14-0 lead. Then, things got all too interesting, but the Pack held on for a 15-10 win. The 49ers are just outside the RPI top 30, so not only did the Pack avenge an earlier loss to Charlotte, they picked up a résumé-building win in the process.
Joe Dunand has not hit for average in his junior season, but there’s been no shortage of power. Dunand, who came into the game batting .218, homered twice to help stake the Pack to a two-touchdown lead.
