Summary
Freshman catcher Alonzo Alvarez has turned heads for the Miami Hurricanes, stepping into the starting role after Alex Sosa’s injury and delivering clutch performances in the NCAA tournament. With three hits, including a game-changing bases-loaded single, and stellar defensive plays — like throwing out a would-be base stealer and picking off another — Alvarez proved he’s ready for the spotlight. Guided by veteran mentor Jarrod Saltalamacchia, he’s hitting over .390 with power and anchoring the defense, showing why he’s making the most of his opportunity as a freshman in the postseason.
