Coming off two heartbreaking losses against Florida, the Miami Hurricanes wanted nothing more than a simple, smooth midweek win over the Bethune-Cookman Wildcats.
And while the Canes would prevail 5-2, the win was anything but simple — rather a boxing match in which Miami would land the final punch with a three run seventh inning.
An ever-rotating door of arms took the mound for Miami (11-2) and Bethune (9-4) Wednesday night as 15 pitchers featured on the slab, seven for BCU and eight for Miami.
Despite clearly putting pressure on the B-CU pitching staff, the Hurricanes struggled to turn those opportunities into runs, leaving six runners in scoring position and 11 on base in total.
