CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – Due to the threat of inclement weather, North Carolina's ACC Baseball Championship semifinal game against Clemson on Saturday, May 27 has been moved up to 1 p.m. at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park.
The game will be televised on ACC Network.
The Wake Forest vs. Miami semifinal game will remain at its regularly scheduled 1 p.m. first pitch but will be played at Boshamer Stadium in Chapel Hill.

The Tar Heels reached the semifinals with a 10-2 win over No. 2 seed Virginia Thursday to capture Pool B, while the Tigers defeated Boston College 4-1 Friday to win Pool C.
Tomas Frick went 3-for-5 with five RBIs in the win over Virginia, while Jake Knapp pitched a strong 5 2/3 innings and held the nation's top offense to only two runs on five hits before Dalton Pence closed it with 3 1/3 scoreless frames.
UNC will send right-handed pitcher Connor Bovair to the mound. Clemson will counter with lefty Caden Grice, who tossed 7 1/3 innings against the Tar Heels a week ago, allowing one run and four hits with nine strikeouts.
