Here is your ACC Recap for April 26th.

Georgia 6 #13 Georgia Tech 4

ATLANTA, GA. — On a night when injured Bulldog Johnathan Taylor returned briefly to watch his team in action, Georgia responded with a 6-4 win over ninth-ranked Georgia Tech Tuesday in front of a crowd of 18,156 at Turner Field.

Powered by a five-run outburst led by junior shortstop Kyle Farmer (2-for-5, 3 RBI), the Bulldogs improved to 7-2 all-time in the “Spring Baseball Classic” against the Yellow Jackets. Georgia Tech (30-11) had won the two on-campus meetings earlier this year, but on Tuesday, the Bulldogs picked up their SEC-leading 11th win over a ranked opponent. Bulldog junior Tyler Maloof notched his SEC-leading 14th save, pitching a scoreless ninth frame.

Virginia Tech 5 NC A&T 4

BLACKSBURG, Va. – Johnny Morales does it again. This time he comes through with a game-winning RBI single in the bottom of the ninth to plate the winning run as Virginia Tech continues its winning streak with a 5-4 victory over North Carolina A&T Tuesday night at English Field.

Morales, who drove in the game-winning runs in Tech’s only extra inning contest this season – a 9-6 victory at Liberty back on March 22 – came to the plate with the bases loaded and no one out. He laced the first pitch he saw through a five-man drawn-in infield to plate Zac MacAneney.
