CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – Winners of four in a row, No. 15 North Carolina opens a four-game homestand Tuesday against North Carolina A&T at 4 p.m. at Boshamer Stadium. The Tar Heels will then face ACC Coastal Division foe Duke March 23-25 before hosting Coastal Carolina to close it out on March 30.
Â
UNC (15-5) is coming off a 17-7 road victory over Pittsburgh on Friday as the Tar Heels and Panthers only played the first game of their three-game due to adverse weather conditions. Mac Horvath belted two of the Tar Heels' season-high six home runs.
Â
During its four-game winning streak North Carolina has outscored its opponents 55-12 with 14 home runs and an ERA of 3.00. Horvath has hit four home runs and Alberto Osuna has smashed three as part of the streak.
Â
After only using four pitchers over the weekend in Pittsburgh, several UNC hurlers are expected to get work on Tuesday with right-hander Jake Knapp (2-0) making the start.
Â
The Tar Heels are 8-0 in midweek games this season with a 7-0 record at home.
Â
The Aggies (10-9) enters the game after salvaging the final game of their three-game series against Northeastern on Sunday. Canyon Brown leads N.C. A&T with a .328 batting average and has hit safely in four straight.
Â
A year ago, N.C. A&T recorded a 7-6 win over UNC at Boshamer Stadium to record just its second win in the series. The Tar Heels lead the all-time series 7-2.
