UNC Baseball: Diamond Heels beat Houston to avoid elimination game

The North Carolina Tar Heels have put themselves in good shape in the Chapel Hill Regional this weekend.

A day after the Tar Heels routed North Carolina A&T, they won their second-straight by beating No. 3 Houston on Saturday night. This now gives the Tar Heels a good shot at winning the regional and advancing to the Super Regionals.

Playing as the road team in Boshamer Stadium, the Tar Heels got the scoring started early in the game. After two quick outs in the top of the second, Brandon Martorano drew a walk that would prove costly.
