Wolfpack takes Game 2 versus Fighting Irish, 4-2

Well that’s better.

In a game that was a pitchers duel for the majority of the first five innings, NC State finally broke things open with a four-run 6th inning and held on late, squashing a Notre Dame 9th inning rally, to even the series with the Irish at a game apiece. The series finale is scheduled for Sunday at 1:00pm.

Despite striking out the side in the first inning, NC State starter Reid Johnston wasn’t at the top of his game, exiting in the fourth inning; but he did only allow a single Notre Dame run in his 3.
