Before we get to Saturday's highlights, we have news of a significant injury to pass along. Georgia Southern junior outfielder Victor Roache, a first-team preseason All-American after hitting a nation-leading 30 homers last year, broke his wrist diving for a ball in the outfield during the Eagles' doubleheader sweep of Radford. Roache will have surgery next week and there is no timetable for his return, though he told BA's Conor Glassey on Twitter that it looks like he'll miss the rest of the season.

As for the games, Chris Beck (7 IP, 7 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 5 K) and Eddie Butler (5 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 1 ER, 6 BB, 4 K) each got no-decisions in the opener of the twin bill, but the Eagles went on to win both games 7-6.

CF/RHP Michael Lorenzen went 0-for-5 for the second straight day for Fullerton but escaped a bases-loaded, no-outs jam unscathed in the ninth thanks to a strikeout and a double play.

• Boston College at (19) Central Florida: In a second straight back-and-forth, one-run affair, BC came from behind to beat UCF 8-7. A hit batsman, a single and four straight walks accounted for all the damage in BC's decisive three-run seventh inning.
