BLACKSBURG – Virginia Tech starting pitcher Nick Anderson tossed a career-high eight innings and struck out a career-high tying six batters, but a Hokies miscue in the third inning allowed two unearned runs to cross the plate and Binghamton held on for a 2-1 victory on Sunday afternoon at English Field at Union Park.
Anderson scattered six hits and two walks over those eight frames and showed his mettle in the seventh, when a leadoff double turned into a runner on third with just one out. Anderson struck out the next two batters and tossed a perfect eighth to keep the Hokies within striking distance.
