When Chris Newell came to the plate in the bottom of the eighth inning in Virginia’s elimination game against Jacksonville, he was the only Wahoo without a hit on the afternoon. He changed that with one booming swing, ripping a solo home run over the right field fence and the fence that surrounds Founders Park in Columbia, SC. It was the 12th run for the Cavaliers as Virginia withstood several punches from the Dolphins to stay alive with a 13-8 victory.
Take cover on the streets! Chris Newell leaves Founders Park, extends UVA's lead to 12-8 in the 8th!
