Long night for Pirates |
|
 GREENVILLE
— East Carolina's youthful
midweek pitching corps was no
match for the meat of the North
Carolina order as an eight-run
outburst in the second inning
served as a launching pad for a
17-4 Tar Heels win on Tuesday
night.
A
crowd of 5,213, the third
largest ever at Clark-LeClair
Stadium and biggest this season,
saw the Pirates strike first but
the excitement of a possible
third straight win over UNC
didn't last long.

GREENVILLE —
Monmouth pitchers Ricky Dennis and Justin Andrews combined for a one-hit
shutout in a 4-0 win at East Carolina on Sunday to prevent a three-game
sweep in the series by the Pirates.
Dennis (2-2) started and
went eight innings. He lost a bid for a perfect game when he hit
Charlie Yorgen with a pitch with one out in the sixth.
He had a no-hitter until
Kirk Morgan's pinch hit single through the right side in the eighth.
Bryce Harman had walked
before Morgan broke up the no-hitter and Parker Lamm pinch ran for
him.
The Hawks had a triple
play on a line out by Garrett Brooks to first baseman Shaine Hughes
to end the eighth.
It was the first triple
play in Clark-LeClair Stadium history.
Dennis finished with one
walk and six strikeouts. Andrews retired the Pirates in order in the
ninth on 12 pitches.
ECU slipped to 13-7
going into a game with Duke at Durham Bulls Athletic Park on Tuesday
at 6 p.m.
Ryan Bailey went 2-for-4
with an RBI as Monmouth improved to 7-11.
The Hawks scored runs in
the first, third, fourth and eighth innings. Monmouth had nine hits
off of three ECU pitchers.
Davis Kirkpatrick (0-1)
started for the Pirates and went three innings. He allowed three
hits, two runs (both earned) and walked two while striking out
three.
Jimmy Boys pitched four
and one-third innings. He yielded five hits, a pair of earned runs
and struck out four without a walk.
Joe Ingle went the final
inning and two-thirds for ECU. He allowed one hit and had one
strikeout.
Pete Papicun, Chris
Gaetano and Justin Trochiano also had RBIs for the visitors.
Both clubs had errorless
efforts defensively.
Just like
daylight savings time, the East
Carolina football team is
looking to spring ahead with its
first offseason practices under
new coach Scottie Montgomery and
his staff.
