The action started with back-to-back home runs from Garrett Pike and Jake Munroe in the home half of the second inning. After Miami got one back in the top of the third, the Cards busted things open with a 5-run frame fueled by a critical Hurricane error and another bomb from Munroe.

For the Miami Hurricanes (34-26), it was shoved into a bottle and hit out of Jim Patterson Park like most of the early pitches today.Luckily for the Hurricanes, a weather delay in the Louisville Super Regional gave the visiting team a one-in-a-million shot of coming back against a hot Louisville Cardinals team,
