2 FIVE THINGS TO KNOW Michael 45 The Notre Dame baseball team caps its 2017 regular season with a three-game ACC series at Boston College. Action with the Eagles begins Thursday at 2:30 p.m., followed by a Friday contest at 1:30 p.m. and Game No. 56 on Saturday at 1 p.m. The Irish are looking to clinch a spot in the ACC Baseball Championship, needing one win this weekend to do so. Notre Dame and Boston College, the only two Catholic institutions in the ACC, have met 41 times, with the Irish holding a edge in the series. The Irish also have won 10-of-12 meetings in Chestnut Hill. The first meeting was a 9-0 Notre Dame win at BC in 1908.The Eagles took the second meeting in Chestnut Hill by a score of 8-1 in The clubs did not meet again until Notre Dame joined the BIG EAST Conference in 1996, with Notre Dame sweeping a doubleheader that season. The teams met 26 times in BIG EAST action, with the Irish taking 21 of those contests. They met once in non-conference action in 2008, a 7-2 BC win in Santaluces, Florida. Since Notre Dame joined the Atlantic Coast Conference in 2014, the teams have met for three games annually, with Notre Dame winning seven-of-nine. Last year, the Irish swept a three-game set at Frank Eck Stadium by scores of 4-1, 4-1 and Matt Vierling is following a rookie season which saw him earn Louisville Slugger Freshman All-America honors by establishing himself as one of the best hitters in the ACC. In the last month (21 games), Vierling has hit.434 (36-83) while contributing 17 RBI, 10 doubles, four triples and two home runs. During ACC play, Vierling ranks 13th with a.330 batting average while his 12 doubles during league play rank second and he is one of nine players in the conference with multiple triples in league games. For the full season, Vierling ranks second in the league with four triples, 10th in doubles (16), 14th in total bases (110) and 19th in slugging percentage (.561). In addition, Vierling leads Notre Dame with 21 multi-hit games and 10 multi-rbi games this year and he enters the BC series with a six-game on-base streak, tied for the longest current streak on the team. Hearne will be looking to cement his place in the Irish record books as he caps his final season. The graduate student ranks second in the league and 19th nationally in walks per nine innings at That mark would rank as the fifth-best single-season mark in Notre Dame history and the best since Adam Norton s rate of 0.64 in The southpaw currently boasts a career walks per nine rate of The career mark would rank second in program history, trailing only Norton s career 1.21 walks per nine innings. The Irish are looking to capture their second trip to the ACC Baseball Championship this weekend. Notre Dame currently stands in 10th, owning a tiebreaker with 11th-place Georgia Tech (both teams currently 10-17), holding a one-game edge over Virginia Tech and a two-game lead over Pitt and Boston College. Notre Dame can still mathematically finish as high as tied for eighth. The 2017 ACC Baseball Championship will be held May at Louisville Slugger in Louisville, Kentucky. The top-12 teams in the league will be separated into four pools, with the winners all advancing to the semifinals on Saturday, May 27.

4 THINGS YOU MAY ALREADY KNOW Hearne Keeps UVA At Bay Home Sweet Home Fiala Goes the Distance Watch These Guys Irish in the Summertime Notre Dame secured its elusive first win over a ranked team this season at No. 19 Virginia on April 21, thanks in large part to the arm of Michael Hearne. The southpaw took a no-hitter into the sixth an a shutout into the eighth against the Cavaliers, who entered the game among the top-10 nationally in runs per game. It marked Hearne s fourth career win over a ranked opponent (three such wins as a senior in 2016) and it was just the second outing of the season which saw him walk more than one batter. Notre Dame played its first home ACC series of the year in week three of conference play against Florida State. Notre Dame and Boston College were the last to play conference home games, with the Eagles playing host to Clemson the same weekend. When Notre Dame opened its home season on Tuesday with a 12-1 over Northern Illinois, it became the fifth-last Power Five Conference team to play a home game. The only teams in the ACC, SEC, Big 10, Big 12 and Pac-12 to open at home later were BC (March 24), West Virginia (March 24), Penn State (March 24) and Purdue (March 28). Senior co-captain Kyle Fiala led the Irish in a 7-6 loss to San Diego State (Feb. 25). Fiala was 4-for-5 with an inside-the-park home run to cap a five-run seventh inning which gave the Irish the lead. He became the first Notre Dame player to make the 360-foot sprint for a score since Cavan Biggio on February 18, 2016, at Santa Clara in the season-opener. Prior to Biggio, the last Irish player with an inside-the-park home run was David Mills at West Virginia in When Peter Solmon takes the bump to throw to Ryan Lidge, the Irish battery is worth watching. Solomon has been named to USA Baseball s Golden Spikes Award Watch List, with that honor going to the nation s best amateur baseball player each year. Lidge, meanwhile, has been named to the Johnny Bench Award Watch List, which is given annually to the best collegiate catcher in the country. Several Irish players made strides towards a future in professional baseball over the summer. Peter Solomon and Brandon Bielak were named Cape Cod League All-Stars, while Brad Bass and Sean Guenther also had outstanding summers on the Cape. Jake Shepski was an all-star in the Northwoods League, while Eric Feliz was picked to be an all-star in the Futures Collegiate Baseball league.
