Michigan celebrates the 8-2 victory over the Fighting Irish! |
Last Tuesday the University of Notre Dame visited the Wilpon Complex in Ann Arbor for a non conference showdown against the Michigan Wolverines. The Wolverines came into the game with a 20-14 record while riding a 9 game winning streak. Notre Dame rolled into Ann Arbor on a 5 game loosing streak with an overall record of 19-14. The temperature was 60 degrees but chilly, and almost every fan was dressed in winter coats. The Wolverines received an incredible pitching performance from sophmore James Bourque, who spent is high school years playing ball at Ann Arbor Huron. Bourque took a no hitter into the eighth inning before Notre Dame's Lane Richards broke up the campaign with a single to right. Michigan scored 3 runs in the sixth inning, and added three more in the seventh. Junior pitcher and Grand Rapids native Alex Lakatos pitched the ninth for the Wolverines allowing two runs in the 8-2 victory for Michigan. The Wolverines return home on May 3rd, 4th, and 5th for a three game series against the Iowa Hawkeyes.
