Early innings lead UAB to win in doubleheader opener
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Dylan Rock had a homer and a double but UAB used five runs over the second and third innings to post a 6-4 win over UTSA baseball in the first of a pair of seven-inning games on Saturday at Young Memorial Field.
UTSA (17-19, 9-12 Conference USA) saw its early one-run lead erased by five runs over the second and third innings from the Blazers. UTSA started to chip away – including a two-run homer from Rock in the fifth and a single tally in the sixth – but UAB was able to plate an insurance run in its last at-bat and hold on for a 6-4 win.
