Virginia Baseball Rallies to Take Down ECU 8-3, Advances to Super Regional

The Virginia Cavaliers were punched in the mouth a few times by East Carolina but always had the answer. On Sunday night, they rallied late to secure an 8-3 victory and complete a clean sweep of the Charlottesville Regional.

Game Summary

Situational hitting was key for the Hoos all game. The power bats came through when they needed to. The clutch base hits did as well.

In the top of the first, it was Kyle Teel who took advantage of a dropped third strike to drive Jake Gelof home with a two-out double. The Pirates struck right back when Jacob Starling laced a double into center, followed by two productive outs to bring him in.
