solid at bat for pat blair. >> erickson worked the outside part of the plate and pat blair doing a good job of sounding off some tough pitches and finally gives in as he gets the free pass. he said i want to have a shot off to one of our young hurricane fans. >> jason: does ben have a bedtime tonight? >> it's a weekend night. holiday weekend. i'm sure he'll be in bed right after this game. >> jason: we will turn the lights off -- wake forest trailing by 3 runs. ryan simmons watching that one. semeniuk is 0-2. popped out to the 1st baseman lawson in the 1st and lined out to center field man devoss in the 3rd. >> i want to correct the history. >> jason: i actually mention the the history of university of miami going back to 1940. i knew it didn't make sense. it dates back too the 19th century. a bit of a difference. 1891 for wake forest with the two all-time college world series appearances. that one is lined to left field and a base hit for ryan semeniuk. so here in the 5th inning the demon deacons, this is a big -- they have their two base runners consecutively on. this time with one ou

off the wall and rounding third and stopping right there is pat blair. that ball hit a mile by seminick. and yet again, give credit to the deacons not going down without a fight trailing 8-6 with two runners in scoring condition. here they come again, steven brooks. brooks is 3-4. >> first base open and put the best hitter on desk. never put the win gning. and you just can't give free pass and make the matters worse. and i don't know if you will leave the closer in the game to close to the game out or have a lefty, lefty match-up if it should get to that. >> swung on and line drive. right field, dropping, dropping it will go all the way to the wall and two runs will score. there he is again. a superlative performance. a 2 double tied the game again this time at 8. the team doesn't give in, as bad a game as they have played dismissal, they are doing a good job dismissal. the fourth hit in the ball game. a fastball and in and brooks puts it in and drives it the other way. as bad as they want this game it's really impressive what they are doing offensively.

pat blair the shortstop. even brooks and mac williamson in the outfield. mike low vanky is the catcher. you see the strike out to walk ratio. 24-7. three wins, one loss and that e.r.a. below three. very impressive for a freshman. and has been solid throughout the year in the start rotation for the demon deacons and their freshman into the program. little by little they will get it turned around. you and i both learned today about lake forest, they don't accept junior college transfers. that limits what you can do as a coach and what you can bring into the program. >> jason: it's so tough in the aca. any time there is a coaching transition, as there was in winston-salem prior to this year, you have to put a blueprint together. it doesn't happen over night. it comes through recruiting. it comes throughputting your stamp. what your style is. it will take some time. you see that conversation between wake forest and tom walters. greg street down the first line. umpire frank sylvester at third. the hurricanes are set offensive. >> you talk about blueprints for w

we'll have mark ryan lead it off followed by pat blair and ryan seminick. striking out a side and working in the 11th. ryan takes the pitch after showing a bunt. a freshman and 0-4 tonight. strike out, lined out to right and a couple of groundouts in the infield. >> and you think that ben is already in bed. >> we can tell ben all about the outcome tomorrow morning after a good night's sleep. >> swing and a miss late on a fastball. >> a ball and two strikes on ryan. ryan had success during the midweek contest against charlotte and elan. and four rbis and a run scored adds wake forest scored two shutting out charlotte 14-0. losing a slug fest at elan on tuesday night. the college is one that university of miami coach jim morris is familiar with. that's where he earned his bachelor's degree in 1973. the count is now 2-2. >> and i hate to say this we're getting back to the part of the line-up for wake forest where every at bat and every run that are could get on, you have the brooks murray combination getting all closer. [ cheers and applause ] >> there is that
