After an impressive series against Wake Forest just a couple of weeks ago, Boston College Baseball has had a bumpy ride as they approach the end of the 2025 regular season. The Eagles were swept by Miami last weekend, a top-30 pairwise team. It wasn’t a complete disaster of a series for BC, who lost two of the three games by just one run each, but the Canes pitching was able to keep the BC bats in check all weekend to pull out the sweep. The heartbreaker came in the eighth inning of the final game on Sunday, when BC closer Joey Ryan gave up a three-run shot to right field that blew the save, the shutout, and the two-run lead after starting pitcher A.J. Colarusso had thrown a real gem for seven innings.
The Eagles then went to Fenway Park on Tuesday to play in the Baseball Beanpot consolation game against UMass, which they won handily, 13-6. BC scored their first few runs of the game on a wild pitch and an error, taking a 4-0 lead in the top of the fifth inning. UMass got right back into the ballgame with a four-run fifth inning themselves and eventually took a 6-4 lead after a two-RBI double in the seventh. But the BC bats woke up in the eighth and ninth, as Eagles catcher Beck Milner homered and launched an RBI double, Eagles centerfielder Josiah Ragsdale homered and sac flied, and Boston College pulled away with a blowout win in the nation’s most iconic ballpark. The celebration was short-lived, however, as the Eagles lost to the Maine Black Bears on the following day, 5-4 in ten innings.
Finally, BC hosted the Stanford Cardinal in Brighton this weekend, losing two of three and bringing the Eagles’ ACC record down to 10-17. Stanford shutout the Eagles on Friday, BC came back with a 6-2 win on Saturday, and then the Cardinal jumped out to a 7-0 lead in the second inning of Sunday’s game, eventually defeating the Eagles, 11-7. Next up for BC is a pair of games against UMass Lowell next weekend, followed by a series against Cal out in Berkeley to close the 2025 regular season.
