Tar Heels Take Super Regional Opener, 5-2

Posted Jun 11, 2011
Patrick Johnson spent most of Friday hitting the outside corner of the plate, frustrating batters and protecting North Carolina's slim lead. The senior is making pitching in the NCAA tournament look pretty easy this year. Johnson pitched into the eighth inning and Seth Baldwin hit a two-run homer in the seventh to help the Tar Heels beat Stanford 5-2 in the NCAA super regionals. (Tar Heel Blue)
