East Carolina sweeps UWM

From staff and electronic reports

View the Mobile Alpha version of this report.

A combination of power hitting and crafty pitching in game one and a decisive seventh-inning rally in game two propelled East Carolina to a doubleheader sweep of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Saturday afternoon in Greenville.

The Pirates (3-0) got home runs from sophomore first baseman Chase McDonald, junior rightfielder Jay Cannon and sophomore leftfielder Ben Fultz and six innings of three-hit ball from junior righthander Jharel Cotton (1-0) en route to a 16-1 thumping of the Panthers in the day's first game.

East Carolina trailed 3-1 in the seventh inning of the second game when senior second baseman Tim Younger brought home the tying runs with a single and senior third baseman Corey Thompson put the Pirates in front for good with a two-run double.

Junior southpaw Tyler Joyner (1-0), who relieved starter Austin Chrismon in the fourth, gave up one hit over 4 2/3 innings and got credit for the victory. Sophomore righthander Drew Reynolds came on in the ninth and retired all three batter to pick up his second save in two days.

The twinbill was played in lieu of individual games originally scheduled for Saturday and Sunday. Officials made the schedule adjustment to get the jump on inclement weather that moved into the region later Saturday and was expected to linger into Sunday.

East Carolina is off until Wednesday when it will bus to Norfolk for a 3 p.m. matchup with Old Dominion.
