Trailing 5-3 and down to its final out with no runners
on base in the bottom of the ninth, East Carolina erupted for five runs to
defeat Elon 8-5 Tuesday night at Clark-LeClair Stadium.
The key blows in the remarkable rally were Zach
Houchins' two-run double that knotted the game and Ben Fultz's three-run
homer that sealed the outcome.
After Dylan Brown hit into a groundout and Bryan Bass
was retired on a flyout, Jack Reinheimer walked and Drew Reynolds singled to
ignite the uprising.
Houchins followed with a double to right center,
driving in Reinheimer and pinch-runner Deshorn Lake to tie the score.
Nick Thompson kept the rally alive with a walk, setting
the stage for Fultz's base-clearing, walk-off blast.
The triumph was ECU's fourth in a row, equaling its
longest winning streak of the season. The Pirates improved to 21-20, the
first time in more than a month they've been above .500.
The Phoenix fell to 22-21.
Houchins went 4-for-5 on the night, including a pair of
doubles and a sixth inning home run. Fultz and Reynolds each had two hits.
Freshman lefthander Nick Durazo picked up the victory
after coming on in relief with two outs in the top of the ninth and two
runners on base. Durazo fanned the only batter he faced to cut off Elon's
push to pad its lead.
Nate Young, the seventh in a parade of nine Phoenix
pitchers, absorbed the loss.
ECU now turns its focus to a Conference USA home series
with Memphis this weekend. The three-game set gets underway Friday at 6 p.m. |
