CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- No score through two innings of play at what now has become a sun-soaked Bosh Pit.

North Carolina and East Carolina each have one hit and starting pitchers Adam Warren (UNC) and Kevin Brandt (ECU) have looked good. Warren has thrown 34 pitches (20 for strikes) and has registered three strikeouts. Brandt threw 29 pitches (19 strikes) and also picked up three K's.

With a pitcher-friendly strike zone from home plate umpire Jim Garman, it could be a long afternoon for the batters. Then again, it's college baseball and this year's NCAA tournament has been a mash fest so far.
