Duke baseball play-by-play announcer Chris Edwards is giving fans an inside look at some of his memorable baseball moments throughout his eight years as the Voice of the Blue Devils. The events highlighted during this series are not meant to be a complete listing of all memorable accomplishments, but a sampling of great moments in Edwards' words.
The 2017 Duke baseball season was filled with highs and lows, as are most seasons. However, the Blue Devils found themselves needing to make a run in the ACC Championship in Louisville, Ky., to have a shot at another NCAA Tournament berth.

After defeating Clemson to open pool play, the Blue Devils would need to upend the Virginia Cavaliers the next night to propel themselves to the semifinals of the event. Duke would do just that, downing Virginia, 4-3, with the key hit in the contest coming from sophomore catcher Chris Proctor, who singled home a pair of runs in the sixth inning to give the Blue Devils a lead they would not relinquish.
