In a disappointing performance, the Notre Dame baseball team fell to No. 13 Virginia by a score of 20-5 in the rubber match of their three-game ACC series at Frank Eck Stadium in South Bend, Indiana. The Irish were competitive early, trailing 5-4 after the third inning, but a disastrous fourth inning saw Virginia score four runs, extending their lead. Notre Dame utilized eight pitchers throughout the game, with starter Dylan Singleton struggling to find his rhythm before exiting in the third inning. Jayce Lee was a standout for the Irish, going 1-for-3 with a two-run homer. Despite some offensive contributions, including Bino Watters' 2-for-4 performance, the Irish could not keep pace with the Cavaliers, who scored in every inning from the sixth onward. With this loss, Notre Dame's record stands at 16-15 overall and 7-11 in the ACC. The team will have a brief respite from conference play as they prepare to host in-state rival Valparaiso on Tuesday evening.
