Miami 9, Louisville 5
Bottom: Torres continues his impressive post-season offensive performance. He gets another hit, his third of the day, and who else is it to try and ice this game but the Hurricanes' star Daniel Cuvet. He sends a bomb for a three-run homer to extend the lead to four.
Top: Brian Walters is in for the Canes. His goal is to close this game out and not see Eddie King Jr. because if he does, it's going to the fire truck sitting on the bridge.

Miami 6, Louisville 5
Bottom: JD pulls Kulo for Taveras, and he instantly gets struck out. I get the R/R matchup, but he was solidifying the bottom of the lineup. Still, the Canes bring in a run to take back the lead.
Miami 5, Louisville 5
Top: At some point, Daniel Cuvet has to make an impact in this series. Carson gets the job done, but gives Eddie King Jr. his second home run of the season
7th Inning:
Bottom: Jake Ogden is a man of few words, but today he is letting it play do all of the talking. He is a triple away from a cycle, but the Canes can't make anything work after him.
Top: Carson is back in control of his command and gets the Hurricanes out of another frame.
6th Inning:
Bottom: Hurricanes get one on base but can't bring them in. The command for Louisville continues to be questionable.
Top: Whatever Laz said to Carson did wonders for his command. Hurricanes escape with a runner on first and second. He was struggling at the top count, and now he strikes out his last two.
5th Inning:
Miami 5, Louisville 4

Bottom: I can't even explain what just happened. The Ump called a foul ball on the Louisville first baseman for reaching over because even in the air, if it crosses the line, it is still a foul. The Hurricanes take advantage of the questionable play, and now the Canes take the lead thanks to an Ogden bomb.
Lousivlle 4, Miami 1
Top: Hugus gives up another home run. Rob Evans gets two outs but hits a pitcher and gets pulled. Carson Fischer is now in for the Canes to try and finish it out. The Hurricanes get lucky and get some momentum back on their side after a troubling two innings.
4th Inning:
Bottom: Hurricanes have had two potential homers fall dead in right field. The Hurricanes go scoreless in the third with all the momentum on the side of Louisville.
BANG‼️ @EddieKingJr17 is a postseason MONSTER‼️

Louisville 3, Miami 1
Top: The first "bad" Hugus inning of the game, but nothing that can't be handled. He gets out with a pop-up, but the Canes are down by one.

Miami 1, Louisville 0
Bottom: Kulikowski it able to push Tanner Smith to third. Michael Torres' hot streak of hitting continues as he brings in Smith. Great outing from the bottom of this Canes lineup.

Top: Hugus is having some command issues but he gets a strikeout after another double play for the Canes.
2nd Inning:
Bottom: Hurricanes fail to bring Ogden who had a leadoff double. Let's hope this is not a trend for the rest of the game. Making good contact on the ball.
Top: Miami gets out of the first with great defense, with a ground-out double play.

LOUISVILLE, KY — It's do or die for the Miami Hurricanes. After getting into a jam against the Louisville Cardinals, the Canes will call on their ace to deliver another massive game. They will need everything from Griffin Hugus, as he will try to keep the power of the Cards at a minimum.
The Canes' offense has to the story of the day. After leaving 12 on base in game one, the Hurricanes will try and find a way to bring in those players.
" We kind of got away from that, a little bit, you know, from the identity of our team, Dorian Gonzalez Jr. said after Friday's loss. "We are going to bounce back tomorrow and be the team that we are."
The Canes will need a star performances from Daniel Cuvet and another player. One in mind would be Jake Ogden who went 0-5 at the plate yesterday. The game was played a lot closer than what the score indicated. The Defense of the Canes was outstanding, but it came down to the offensive performance.
