GREENVILLE — East Carolina left-hander Reid Love pitched a four-hit shutout as the Pirates muzzled Tulane 3-0 at Clark-LeClair Stadium on Thursday night.

Kirk Morgan had two hits and two RBIs to help ECU improve to 18-12 overall and 2-2 in the American Athletic Conference.

Love (3-2) aided his own cause with a hit and a run scored. He didn't issue a walk and struck out six in his fourth career complete game.

Charlie Yorgen was 2-for-4 for the Pirates with an RBI.

Yorgen singled to start a two-run fourth inning for ECU. Luke Lowery had a one-out single through the right side that moved Yorgen to third. Eric Tyler drew a two-out walk to load the bases before a two-out single through the right side by Morgan drove in a pair of runs for a 2-0 Pirates lead.

Love singled up the middle to start off ECU's fifth. He went to second on a ground out to first by Hunter Allen. Love took third on a wild pitch and scored on a single by Yorgen after Garrett Brooks walked. That gave the Pirates a 3-0 advantage.

ECU turned three double plays.

John Gandolfo and Hunter Williams each went 2-for-3 for Tulane (19-11, 1-3). Corey Merrill (1-3) went the route for the Green Wave.

Game two of the three-game series is scheduled for 6:30 this evening.
