CORAL GABLES, FL — Third-seeded Columbia used a five-run sixth inning to upset second-seeded East Carolina 6-3 in the opening game of the NCAA regional hosted by Miami on Friday.

The Pirates (40-21) fell behind 1-0 as Jordan Serena of the Lions (32-15) led off the game with a home run to left center on a full count pitch from ECU starter Evan Kruczynski.

Three runs in the fourth gave the Pirates a 3-1 lead after Reid Love was hit by a pitch to start the frame. Kirk Morgan advanced the runner with a sacrifice bunt before Luke Lowery walked. A grounder to second by Travis Watkins put runners at second and third.

An error on a ball hit by Garrett Brooks allowed Harman to score for a 3-1 Pirates advantage.
