Taken with the 142nd pick overall, Miclat is expected to ink a deal with a signing bonus of $225,000, which will be the largest bonus received thus far by a fifth-round pick. He said he plans to leave Sunday to report to the Orioles’ Gulf Coast League team in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

Virginia pitcher Pat McAnaney agreed to terms with the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday.

Virginia’s first baseman was not alone — senior left-hander Pat McAnaney, senior reliever Michael Schwimer and six players in the program’s recruiting class were selected during the two-day draft’s final 44 rounds. St. Anne’s-Belfield pitcher/first baseman Kyle Long went to the Chicago White Sox in the 23rd round. Based on where he was selected, Long is expected to honor his commitment to play for Florida State and will be eligible for the draft again after his sophomore season based on his age.

Players associated with Virginia’s baseball program, and at least one local prep standout, will likely run the gauntlet, covering all the scenarios during the draft process that kicks off today at 2 p.m. (ESPN2) and concludes Friday in rapid-fire style during the final 45 rounds.

Given the enormity of games played in baseball, picking a season-defining moment is near impossible.

Thanks to an odd interference call on a slide made by Greg Miclat into second base in the sixth inning by umpire Marc Lewis that eliminated a run and potential rally for the Cavaliers, Cal State Fullerton cruised to a 4-1 win at Goodwin Field.

Schimwer’s confidence prior to the potential showdown does not place him in the over-the-top John Rocker mold. In fact, Schwimer and Crawford are close friends.

For the first time in over a month, Virginia exploded offensively against an ACC opponent. Ultimately, it did not matter.

Behind three scoreless innings of relief work from Davis, the Cavaliers mounted a rally and upended Wake Forest, 4-2, in the opening game of the weekend series.

For the second time in his young life, Pat McAnaney faced a life-altering dilemma - whether to pitch for the Pittsburgh Pirates or the Virginia Cavaliers.

Florida State scored lone runs in the 10th inning in a pair of contests to register back-to-back 3-2 wins during a doubleheader at Dick Howser Stadium.
