Friday afternoon went exactly how Notre Dame baseball wanted to start its weekend, and it made it even sweeter beating former head coach Link Jarrett and No. 4 Florida State 16-9 in Frank Eck Stadium.
The Irish trailed 4-2 entering the bottom of the sixth, then erupted for 5-runs to take a lead they would never relinquish. Notre Dame's offense didn't let up, as they scored another run in the seventh, and capped off the huge win with a big 8-run eighth inning.
Offensively, it was catcher Carson Tinney leading the way, going 2-for-3 with a homer, 4 RBI and two walks. He wasn't the only one making their mark with big blasts as Jared Zimbardo, Estevan Moreno, Brady Gumpf, Nick DeMarco, Jayce Lee and DM Jefferson all went yard as well.
While it wasn't the best pitching performance for the Irish, starter Jack Radel held the Seminole offense in check allowing 4 runs in 5.2 innings, striking out five. Rickey Reeth came in relief and got knocked around a bit to 4 runs in 2 innings, but Chase Van Ameyde shut the door with just one run allowed in 1.1 innings. He struck out the side in the top of the ninth to secure the win.

The victory puts Notre Dame's season record at 14-9, 2-8 in ACC play. It was clearly a much needed win as the Irish get back on the diamond to conclude the series on Saturday with a double-header, as Sunday's game was moved to tomorrow due to weather concerns.

Bryce James opens up on advice LeBron, Bronny gave him before he starts at Arizona
Bryce James is about to embark on his freshman year of college basketball, and now he's opening up on the wisdom his future Hall of Fame father has given him. The incoming Arizona guard, taking part in summer practice, talked Tuesday about the advice his dad, LeBron James, has given him, which is mostly sound advice in all parts of life — be true to yourself. 'Just working hard and just come in here and doing what you do best,' Bryce told reporters. 'Just making sure even if you're not having some good days just have the stay-positive mentality. Maybe miss a shot, you give a turnover, don't hang your head down, always keep your head up. Just push through, stay positive.' Advertisement Bryce James of Sierra Canyon celebrates after making a 3-pointer against Notre Dame in the first half at Intuit Dome on February 1, 2025 in Inglewood, Calif. Getty Images The 6-foot-4 shooting guard was a three-star recruit — according to 247Sports — and had offers from Ohio State and Duquesne. Part of his decision was the atmosphere and the energy the fans bring to McKale Memorial Center in Tucson. Advertisement 'For me personally, I would probably say the environment. I know the fans really enjoy coming to the Arizona game and they like to get rowdy and loud,' he said. 'So, for me personally, I just want a real college experience and for me, Arizona was one of those colleges.' James comes to Arizona, which had the No. 3 recruiting class this year, according to both 247 and Rivals. Much like his older brother, Bronny, he stayed out west for college after finishing high school at Sierra Canyon, helping the team to a California state title in 2025. Bryce was asked if he saw what Bronny experienced during the 2023-24 season at USC and would want to avoid the spotlight.

NBAE via Getty Images 'What I'm focused on is having the full college experience,' the younger James replied. 'Not really caring about what other people are saying. Just really locking in and focusing on college. As for what Bronny told his younger brother, he said for Bryce to be consistent and focused. Bryce added that what he will bring best to the Wildcats — who are coming off a Sweet 16 appearance last year — are his shooting skills, basketball IQ and defensive ability. Advertisement Coming to a team that has a strong freshman class and high expectations, Bryce now said he's ready to bring a strong effort to Arizona. 'College and high school are two different things,' he added. 'So, I'm just coming here and working hard and putting in the effort and it will turn out good.'
