Miami Hurricanes finish a winless week

Miami tied the game in the third inning with a Romy Gonzalez home run. Georgia Tech earned the lead back for good when they scored on a wild pitch in the sixth. The Yellow Jackets added two more in the eight for a 4-1 win.

Miami wasted a solid performance from Andrew Cabezas. He allowed four runs on eight hits with three walks and 11 strikeouts in 7.2 innings.

Miami also wasted another stellar performance earlier in the week in the loss to Florida Gulf Coast. Freshman Daniel Federman pitched eight innings allowing just one unearned run on four hits and no walks with seven strikeouts.

The Hurricanes got the loss when the Eagles scored the game’s only run in the bottom of the eighth. Miami also lost an exhibition game to the Marlins on Tuesday. McMahon made his Hurricanes debut in a 22-2 loss to the Marlins.

After getting over .500 against Virginia last weekend, Miami is now 12-15 after four straight losses.

The Hurricanes 44 year streak of consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances came to end last season. With about two months remaining in the season, it appears that they are now going to have a streak of consecutive years with missing the NCAA Tournament.
