After suffering its worst loss of 2026 on Tuesday, the UNC baseball team is getting a much-needed break from game action today.
North Carolina (36-9-1, 17-7 ACC) will host archival Duke on Sunday at 2 p.m. in an odd scheduling quirk, then Winthrop (May 6) and Pitt (May 8-10) to close out its home-heavy regular season. The Diamond Heels travel to UNC-Wilmington (May 12) and NC State (May 15-17), then begin their postseason run.
UNC has a couple sluggers on its roster, but pitching is the hallmark of its 2026 success. Ace pitcher Jason DeCaro, bullpen stars Caden Glauber and Walker McDuffie are the ACC's top three ERA (earned run average) leaders.
Glauber sports an ACC-best 2.13 ERA, while adding a 6-0 win-loss record, 61 strikeouts and three saves. DeCaro is second with a 2.17 ERA, adding 50 K's and a team-best 7 wins, while McDuffie is third with a 2.40 ERA, also carrying six wins, a North Carolina-leading 65 strikeouts and four saves.
These three aren't the only Diamond Heels with lockdown stuff on the mound. Jackson Rose (3-0, 1.59 ERA), Ryan Lycnh (58 strikeouts) and Boston Flannery (3.44 ERA) are just a few of many who can give opposing hitters trouble.
If UNC wants to make a deep postseason run, it'll have to find consistent starting pitching and ways to carry hitting success between games.
Folger Boaz, the third guy in North Carolina's 3-man weekend rotation, sports a 6.44 ERA despite carrying a 3-1 record. Outside of the Diamond Heels' record-setting, 22-5 road win over the Blue Devils, they have just six runs in their last four games.
Scott Forbes is still head coach for a reason. He'll get UNC right, as you're looking at arguably the best team in years.
