If your talking about the double elimination game, Crybaby I will never forget that Saturday. UNCA has given us fits the last several years. I think they won the series the last time we played. I was getting a little worried today.

I will be so relieved if we can get out of here without a slipup. Get the sweep, knock out exams, rest up and lets pull the stretch run. Im amazed any time teams pitch to seiz in late game scenarios.

Good series so far, winning a couple of tight, must win, games. Would be great to win tomorrow, take a few days off and set up our pitching for the Coastal series.

Bottom of the ninth, UNC-Asheville leads 3-2. Flames have runners on 1st and 3rd with nobody out.

Why do I even worry anymore? This team just finds ways to win games. I feel like I'm watching the 2012 Orioles all over again.

This team is having fun. A few days off before we play a team from Charlottesville who has a decent team.

Good series by the guys, three come from behind wins. Surprised that Asheville has such a poor record, they played pretty stellar against us. We are going to have to play better defense to finish out the year though. I believe all 3 runs were unearned today.

We really dodged a bullet this weekend. A loss would have really dropped us in the rpi. We keep fining ways to win and we continue to win games we should win. Bad news is despite the wins we havent hit all that well or run the bases well. Good time for a break. Great 45 game start for the flametrain

Thanks critic...so we are 5 1/2 with 6 to play. two wins or a win and a Campbell loss next series locks up overall number one for us. The mark of a champion is winning even when not at your best, and these guys really came through this weekend against a traditionally tough opponent (the game I referenced before was in 2007 I think)

And Alex Close with what may be my favorite baseball quote of all time:
“That’s not a good situation to be in, to make an error in front of Seiz in the ninth inning,” Close said. “I didn’t think I was going to have a chance to hit. I thought he was about to put it off their bus to win it.”

Should just need one win regardless, due to head to head.

One win...basically we have to pick up a half game over the final two series so you may be right el_yu

Heck of a win today! While I wish this series wasn't as close as it was, a sweep is still a sweep.
