Bombs away in Cincy
Bonesville.net Staff Report
In the most explosive offensive display in
Conference USA history,
East Carolina strafed Cincinnati mercilessly
Saturday in a rout for the record books.
The Pirates, who have averaged 17 runs over
their last four games and have piled up 141 runs during an
11-game winning streak, spotted the
host Bearcats a 6-0 lead after one inning before breaking out the timber for
multiple runs in each of the next eight frames to
beat down UC 32-14.
East Carolina's relentless assault on
Cincinnati continued unabated from the series opener between the teams on
Friday, when the Pirates
downed the Bearcats in a 15-13 slugfest.
ECU and UC will conclude their three-game
set today. The first pitch is slated for 1 p.m. and the action is
scheduled to be broadcast by Pirate
Radio 1250 with the Internet audio
streamed live by Bonesville.net.
