After winning their first two games in the Statesboro Regional, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish baseball team earned the right to sit back and watch the first game of the day, awaiting the winner of Texas Tech and Georgia Southern. Texas Tech won their second in a row, setting up a rematch of the first game of the Regional between the Irish and Red Raiders. Much like the first game, this one was a pitcher’s duel and was ultimately decided by only one run.
Notre Dame 2 - Texas Tech 1
Win: John Michael Bertrand, ND (9-2)
Loss: Jamie Hitt, TT (0-2)
Save: Jack Findlay, ND (2)
After pitching only one inning in the opener on Friday, John Michael Bertrand came back to start again for Notre Dame.
