GREENVILLE A leadoff
triple by Cody Acker in the top of the ninth inning led to the go-ahead
run for Virginia Commonwealth in a 4-3 win over East Carolina at Clark-LeClair
Stadium on Friday night.
Acker scored on a
fielder's choice as the visitors improved to 10-9 while the Pirates
(15-7) saw a six-game winning streak halted.
Eric Tyler went 2-for-4
and drove in all three ECU runs.
Tyler singled to score
Parker Lamm in the fourth inning and tie the score at 1.
Bryce Harman singled to
start the bottom of the sixth for the Pirates and Luke Lowery
followed with a double. Tyler singled up the middle to drive in two
runs and give ECU a 3-2 lead.
Matt Davis had a
sacrifice fly for VCU in the third and a solo home run in the sixth.
Jimmy Boyd (2-4) took
the loss in relief of Evan Kruczynski, who went six and one-third
innings. Kruczynski allowed eight hits and three earned runs with
two walks and four strikeouts.
Boyd allowed one hit,
the triple by Acker, and didn't issue a walk while striking out
three over two innings.
Reid Love pitched the
last two-thirds of an inning.
The three-game series is
scheduled to continue with a 4 p.m. game today.
