The 2010 baseball season is underway and the UNC Bears have three wins and five losses. The Bears have had two separate road trips, one to New Mexico to play UNM and one to Huntsville, Texas to play in the Bearkat Invitational hosted by Creighton University.

The Bears only won one of four against the University of New Mexico during their trip to New Mexico, but in the second game of a double-header on Feb. 27, UNC baseball won six to five in ten innings. This win is big for the Bears since UNM is ranked # 19 in the nation.

At the Bearkat Invitational UNC won two and lost two. The first game against Creighton saw the Bears coming up short by a margin of 15 to eight. The Bears avenged this loss on day two of the tournament, and later in the day beat the Sam Houston State Bearkats, giving them a chance to play for the tournament win. Unfortunately for UNC fans the Bears lost the final game of the tournament to Sam Houston State in a nail-biting, 15-inning pitching battle that resulted in UNC losing four to three. This game was the longest in school history, and also tied the Bears record for number of runners left stranded by both teams combined at 29. The last time that many runners were left on base without scoring in a UNC baseball game was in 1993 against Nebraska-Kearney.
