    On the third floor of Margot Connell Recreation Center, students count reps of lat pull-downs just feet away from Boston College volleyball’s home court. A strip of artificial turf, treadmills, and a jogging loop sit right above on the fourth floor, looking down on the court.

    Some believe that when a pitcher is throwing a perfect game, it risks a jinx to talk about it. But perhaps even more common than superstitious no-hitter rites, are concerns about pulling a starter when they’re in rhythm.  Boston College baseball pitcher A.J.

    If there was any early indication of how Kyle Kipp’s start would go, consecutive walks to start the game were a screaming alarm. It was enough to get Boston College baseball head coach Todd Interdonato to take a mound visit just 12 pitches into the bottom half of the Eagles’ tilt against No. 18 Louisville. Kipp did not pitch around the walks, however. Louisville hit three consecutive singles, scoring three runs before Kipp recorded an out.
