The Miami Hurricanes are on a mission. They have played two games in a row without errors, highlighting how well the team can play when they are at the top of their game.

The question now is, can they continue on their path to an ACC Championship when their defense needs them most against one of the peskiest teams in the country?

Boston College and "birdball" took care of the games to start the season, but that was due to the Canes letting go of a late-game lead, dropping game one in the 11th inning. Now, the Hurricanes' offense continues to hum, and J.D. Arteaga is ready, knowing that his team has to improve.

"There's always things to improve on," Arteaga said. "Consistency out of the bullpen and coming in throwing strikes that's that's number one and we've had our defensive issues throughout the year. We were solid today. They played good defense, a couple of double plays. There's always room for improvement. When guys got opportunities to come in out of bullpen is coming in, throwing strikes, challenge guys and get people out."

Thanks to the Virginia and Georgia Tech game going long, the new pitch time is 3:40 p.m. ET for Miami and Boston College.

1st Inning:

Top: The Hurricanes get five through the lineup with two getting on, but a quick out to close the inning gives life for the Eagles.

Bottom: Great throw from Williams, but he was playing too deep, allowing, but that was some quick speed from BC. Lázaro Collera gives up another hit, and it drives in another run.

Boston College 2, Miami 0

2nd Inning:

Top: Vance Sheahan with a chopper, but a fielder's choice to get him out, but Miami has the tying run at second. And FABIO PERALTA WITH HIS FIRST HOMER OF THE YEAR. Two-run bomb for the sophomore Miami takes the lead in a friendly ballpark.

Miami 3, Boston College 2

Another run from Jake Ogden stealing from home. A great jump to get the lead. They are Birdballing BC right now.

Four-run inning for the Canes.

Miami 4, Boston College 2

Bottom: Peralta is the name of the game right now defensively and offensively. The decision to put Peralta in over Torres at center has been one of the best lineup changes this season. Torres is the best defender on the team, but Peralta is not far behind him and provides so much more offensively.

3rd Inning:

Top: The Hurricanes get back to the bottom of their lineup, but this time it is not as effective as the first.

Bottom: Miami's outfield is balling right now. Derek Williams is not only a star hitter but a star defender.

4th Inning:

Top: Another two-run homer for the Canes, this time from Alex Sosa. With two outs, the Hurricanes are one of the most dangerous teams in the country. Off-speed and it's a bomb.

Miami 6, Boston College 2

Bottom: The Hurricanes are pushing towards another clean outing.

5th Inning:

Top: The Canes offense is humming and are not letting them settle. Two on but Milano misreads the jump for a freshman mistake to give the Eagles an easy exit.

Bottom: Collera is starting to heat up. He is getting out and eating up the innings that the Canes want him too.

6th Inning:

Top: The Hurricanes still struggle to get more runs on the board but they are getting some hits off.

Bottom: Collera's day is done and enters Nick Robert. Robert lets two on base but gets out of his own jam to not let anyone up.

7th Inning:

Top: The Hurricanes had a chance to really put the game away with the bases loaded, but they missed the chance but they throw in an extra run.

Miami 7, Boston College 2

Bottom: The Hurricanes get out with Jack Dorso getting some time on the mound.

8th Inning:

Top: The Canes add another run but they still leave several stranded.

Miami 8, Boston College 2
