The Notre Dame Fighting Irish baseball team was back on the road over the weekend, after a rough stretch that saw them lose four straight games and have three more cancelled. The 13th-ranked Irish travelled to Tallahassee for a conference series with the #5 Florida State Seminoles, coming away with all three wins.
Game 1: Notre Dame 2 (14-5, 3-4) - Florida State 0 (16-9, 6-4)
Win: Alex Rao, ND (1-0)
Loss: Jonah Scolaro, FSU (1-2)
The opening game of the series was a pitcher’s duel from the very beginning, staying that way until the Irish broke the deadlock in extra innings.
