Twenty six and twenty seven. The Heels sent seniors Ryan Graepel, Mike Cavisinni and Colin Bates (a redshirt junior who graduated in May) off with a resounding series sweep of Virginia Tech this weekend. Bittersweet because we’re still out of the ACC tournament thanks to Georgia Tech failing to get it done in sweeping BC,…

baseball: unc @ duke, game two
baseball: unc @ duke, game two, originally uploaded by minervacat. Twenty five. (Albeit without a new photo, because I went out without a battery in the camera last night, like a complete moron. This one’s from early March.) If you’d told me two years ago that I would get a little vapoury when Matt Harvey…

baseball: jacksonville suns @ carolina mudcats
Twenty four. Proof that I cannot work the internets correctly: I bought tickets to last night’s Mudcats game, cheerfully thinking that they were to a Mudcats game against the West Tennessee Diamond Jaxx — not, you know, the Jacksonville Suns, who take the obvious abbreviation JAX on the Southern League schedules. Luckily the Diamond Jaxx…
baseball: wake forest @ unc, game 2
baseball: wake forest @ unc, game 2, originally uploaded by minervacat. Twenty three. A large part of Carolina’s problems this season can be linked to the fact that, before yesterday, they hadn’t won a game on a Saturday since March 20. It’s nice to go into Sunday knowing that you’ve already taken the series, and…
baseball: swb yankees @ durham bulls
baseball: swb yankees @ durham bulls, originally uploaded by minervacat. Twenty two. North Carolina has ten minor league teams (if you count the Charlotte Knights, who technically represent Charlotte but play in South Carolina), which is the fourth most in the nation. (Florida at 13, California at 12, and New York at 11 come out…
baseball: uva @ duke
baseball: uva @ duke, originally uploaded by minervacat. Twenty one. A rare ACC series in which Carolina was not involved. We got a free pair of Duke tickets based on our Bulls mini-plan purchase, and they got used to see Virginia, since Carolina goes up to C’ville this year instead of having UVa at home….
baseball: fsu @ unc, game two
baseball: fsu @ unc, game two, originally uploaded by minervacat. Baseball photography. Since I launched this blog a year ago today, with a photo of an occasionally idiotic third baseman and a brief discussion of baseball photography, what better way to celebrate a year than more baseball photography talk? Obviously I take a lot of…

Twenty. Anatomy of a pitcher.

baseball: nc state @ unc, game three, originally uploaded by minervacat. Nineteen. Just a couple of hours after I took this, no one on the UNC baseball team had any hair anymore. (Photos of that are here.)
