• Besides the typical concession stand munchies like popcorn, hot dogs and cheeseburgers, Mark Light Field also serves Cuban coffee, milkshakes and plantains.

The Home Plate Creamery sells milkshakes in the typical flavors of chocolate and vanilla, but also Omaha Express (chocolate mint), Rag Arm (strawberry fudge), Jayro (double fudge and Oreo) and Tootie Fruitie.

The milkshakes are dubbed "The Light Famous Milkshakes" and run $4.50 a pop.

• A white sign reading "AZ, IT'S HURRICANE SEASON" hung from the third level of a white parking garage behind right field of Mark Light Field. The "AZ" was written in black, the "it's" and "season" in green and the "hurricane" was in orange.

• UA coach Andy Lopez made one lineup change for Game 3. He made left-handed batter Bobby Coyle the designated hitter, replacing Mike Weldon in the No. 7 spot. Weldon went 2 for 4 with a run scored and an RBI as the DH the previous two games. Coyle went 0 for 4 as a pinch hitter and sub in the first two games and 2 for 2 Sunday.

• The Wildcats won a coin toss and were the designated home team Sunday for the second consecutive game.

• Temperature at first pitch was 83 degrees with 66 percent humidity under partly cloudy skies. In Tucson, it was sunny and 96 degrees with 11 percent humidity.

• The Hurricanes' baseball mascot, the Miami Maniac, was in full force during the series — dancing, running through the crowd and greeting fans. The Maniac resembles an orange anteater with a green snout and hair and wears a Hurricanes jersey and hat. He is believed to be the first full-time mascot dedicated to college baseball.

• Wildcats left fielder Rafael Valenzuela made a running catch of a line drive to end the first inning Sunday — and then flipped over a short fence near the left field stands. The Nogales, Ariz., native hung on to the ball and jumped back over the fence.

Arizona players who have hit at least 20 home runs in a season. Senior C.J. Ziegler joined the group Saturday. Shelley Duncan tops the list with 24 in 2001.

• Arizona right fielder Jon Gaston became a target for Miami fans during the series. He received his share of jeers from the Miami crowd. Gaston, a junior, hit the game-winning, three-run home run in the Wildcats' 6-3 victory Friday. As he rounded the bases, Gaston pumped his fist and gestured his fingers toward his mouth to silence the fans. The crowd doused him with boos during the next two games. Gaston responded with a two-run homer in the seventh inning Saturday.
