College Daily Sheet: Wes is More 5/2/26
Atlantic Coast
Covered by: Harris Yudin
Will Baker, OF Georgia Tech (Atlantic Coast)
1-for-4, HR, R, 3 RBI
After a rough loss to unranked Xavier on Friday, Georgia Tech bounced back with a five-run third to take a much-needed Game 2. The hero? It wasn’t Lackey, Burress or Advincula, but seven-hole hitter Will Baker, who unleashed on a hanging breaking ball and drove it over the trees in right field, giving the Yellow Jackets a 5-1 lead with a three-run shot that proved to be the difference in the game. Four of Baker’s 15 career homers have come in the last two weeks.
Mark Quatrani, C Notre Dame (Atlantic Coast)
4-for-5, 2B, R, 4 RBI
If Notre Dame was scoring on Saturday, Quatrani was involved. He especially made his mark late in the game, pulling the Irish within one with a two-run single in the seventh, and putting the exclamation point on the comeback with a double in the eighth, plating two more. After two strong years at Cornell, Quatrani has been a major contributor in the middle of Notre Dame’s lineup this year, coming up huge in some key wins over Clemson, Virginia, Boston College and now Stanford. He’ll be an interesting Day 2 draft selection this summer.
