Carolina lost today in the ACC baseball Tournament they blew a five run lead.  They must win their last two games and hope Miami loses twice in order to get into the finals Sunday.  N C State and Georgia Tech are trying to play all night.  It is the longest game in ACC Tournament history.  Tech steals home in the 15th to win it 6-5.  If Tech beats Florida State Friday they play for the Title Sunday.  If Florida State beats Tech then the Clemson-N C State winner Saturday plays for the title
