Live NCAA Regional Blog: Miami at Southern Miss

Bottom:
Top: Great work from Rob. JD is also managing this game from his pen well. Give credit where it is due. Hasn't had to go to Carson yet.
Miami 5, USM 2
8th Inning:
Bottom: Will Smith is done for the night but it will not stop from his electric work.
Top: Nothing for the Canes on offense but they are trying to put out a great effort.
7th Inning:
Bottom: Last time Will Smith was this electric he was throwing heaters against Florida Atlantic. He is going it again right now.
Miami 5, USM 1
Top: Don't look now but the Hurricanes are starting to push this lead. Michael Torres hasn't had the prettiest hits but he is getting some. The Hurricanes
6th Inning:
Bottom: That was a close one for the Canes at the bottom of the fifth. Dorian cleans up Renzo's error, and Smith gets him out at first.
Miami 3, USM 1

Top: With Michael Torres finding his confidence, he gives the Canes a chance and that is what he got. He gets to second on a passed ball. Ogden gets a double that bounces off the wall and the Canes have retaken the lead.
5th Inning
Miami 1, USM 1
Bottom: It's now a game of inches. Cuvet bobbled the ball and had he had been a millisecond later, that goes the other way for the Canes.
Top: Matthew Adams is doing an outstanding job on this Hurricanes offense. He is up to 7ks.
4th Inning:
Bottom: Maybe it's the new haircut, but Reese is dealing right now and doing what he is being asked. The Hurricanes' defense is looking World Series-y right now.
Top: Need some production out of the top of the lineup tonight. They go out and get nothing against Adams. He's doing his job with his limited time.
3rd Inning:
Bottom: The Hurricanes' defense is outstanding right now. Tanner Smith catches Russo going for second with a great throw to Dorian.
Miami 1, USM 0
Top: Not to brag, but I called the Derek Williams home run. He launches the ball out to center field for the first run of the day. However, Adams is still dealing. He is up to five strikeouts now, but his pitch count is extremely high for the second inning.

2nd Inning
Bottom: Great glove from Jake. The defense has come to play. Reese looks good as well. Hurricanes get out and give the offense another chance.
Top: Three up and down for the Canes. Matthew Adams dealing in the first for the Golden Eagles.
1st Inning:
Pregame:
Miami Starting Lineup | Southern Miss Starting Lineup |

The two best words in sports: Game 7.
The Miami Hurricanes are looking to reach their first super regional since the 2016 season as they prepare to battle a tested Southern Miss team after being stormed in the first inning in the potential regional-winning game last night.
Now the Hurricanes will look to their bullpen with several fresh arms and opportunities for the Canes to try and find a way to get back to a place they called their home. The Hurricanes have a 0-0 mentality, but this is the biggest game of the season. The Hurricanes have a standard, and they are trying to return to being the kings of college baseball.
The Golden Eagles are also looking to come up with an answer after they found themselves last night. They had struggled to get a run in when they were in scoring position all weekend. Their bats are hot, but so are the Canes, so that it will come down to each team's bullpen.
