Virginia scores five in the first and outlasts a lightning delay and a Miami rally to hold on and take the series opener 6-5
In a road series against the number one team in the country, it's important to get off to a good start. And Virginia did just that Friday night in Coral Gables. The Hoos put up five runs in the top of the first, which would be just about enough to hold on for a 6-5 win against the Hurricanes.
Virginia's bats were hot to start the evening as Ernie Clement got things rolling with a one-out double.
