Boston College baseball relief pitcher Ethan Soares entered the sixth inning after the game-tying run was walked-in. Notre Dame leadoff batter DM Jefferson and first team All-ACC catcher Carson Tinney were the next batters due up. But Soares struck out both. Soares looked just as dominant after wiping away those runners to end the sixth, as he shut out Notre Dame when his team needed it most. Notre Dame (32–21, 14–16 Atlantic Coast) recorded only one hit against Soares and struck out five times.

A collegiate start remains a new task for Jacob Burnham. Burnham, a freshman, made two starts prior to Saturday, and none as efficient as the 11-pitch-per-inning pace he owned through four innings. The fifth inning was foreign territory for Burnham in a start, and Max Handron engaged Burnham in an eight-pitch at bat that ended with a booming single. The Bears ripped another single after Handron. A bunt, ultimately, brought in two runs for the Bears. Burnham charged the bunt and overthrew first base.

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. Only four transparent doors separate Division-I, ACC matchups from the clatter of dumbbell plates and a whole row of strength equipment.

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. Colarusso did have a perfect game going. But that didn’t last too long, as he walked Daniel Cuvet, the twelfth batter he faced. Colarusso, however, remained unphased and retired the next batter on two pitches to end the inning.
