For 13 pitches, Patrick McDonald was immaculate. The freshman right hander entered Notre Dame’s eventual 5-0 win over Eastern Michigan on Wednesday evening in the seventh inning with the Irish ahead 1-0.

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
