It was the Charlie Vorsheck show for much of Tuesday night at Frank Eck Stadium as Notre Dame downed Northwestern, 3-2, in nonconference action. After conceding a two-out RBI double in the first inning, the junior righty sat down the next 14 Northwestern hitters in order. “I had no clue until right now, actually,” Vorsheck

For Irish senior catcher Ryan Lidge, baseball is a series of dances. Behind the plate, he has multiple partners: the umpire, the batter and his pitcher on the mound. Those are dances he’s excelled at — he was named the top defensive catcher in the Northwoods League during summer ball in 2014, and then he

Notre Dame continued its midseason renaissance Tuesday night, downing Michigan State 2-1 at Frank Eck Stadium for its fourth consecutive win. The Spartans (18-11, 2-3 Big Ten) played from ahead, in part because of the legs of their leadoff hitter, freshman left fielder Bryce Kelly. Kelly took Irish senior starter Scott Tully’s first offering and singled

After being swept in a three-game series by No. 12 Florida State over the weekend, Notre Dame found itself in a familiar position, down three runs early to Chicago State during Tuesday night’s matchup.

Notre Dame got its 2017 season off on the wrong foot Friday and only barely recovered the rest of the weekend, dropping three of four games to start the year at the Alamo Irish Classic in San Antonio. By the time the Irish (1-3) came to bat in the bottom of the first Friday against Lafayette,

Notre Dame’s season doesn’t get underway until next week when the Irish travel to San Antonio for the season-opening Alamo Irish Classic, but the program has already been hard at work constructing a fresh look for 2017. “When it’s all said and done, [our new team building] will encompass the existing locker room,” Irish head

Notre Dame cruised to yet another midweek victory Tuesday night in Indianapolis, defeating Indiana, 5-0, thanks to another strong pitching performance from senior lefty Michael Hearne.

In its first series away from home in a month, Notre Dame dropped all three games to ACC Atlantic Division-leading Florida State. The Irish (23-15, 9-10 ACC) took an early lead in each game of the weekend, but the No. 10 Seminoles (28-11, 13-4) stormed back in all three to sweep Notre Dame at Dick
