Long night for Pirates |

 GREENVILLE
— East Carolina's youthful
midweek pitching corps was no
match for the meat of the North
Carolina order as an eight-run
outburst in the second inning
served as a launching pad for a
17-4 Tar Heels win on Tuesday
night.
A
crowd of 5,213, the third
largest ever at Clark-LeClair
Stadium and biggest this season,
saw the Pirates strike first but
the excitement of a possible
third straight win over UNC
didn't last long.

DURHAM —
East Carolina scored two runs in the seventh and three more in the
eighth to rally past Duke for an 8-6 nonconference win at Durham Bulls
Athletic Park on Tuesday night.
Zack Mozingo had an RBI
single in the seventh with two strikes and two out to score Kirk
Morgan and draw the Pirates within 6-4. Bryce Harman followed with a
two-strike single to bring home Eric Tyler and cut the Blue Devils'
lead to 6-5.
Travis Watkins had a
two-run double in the eighth that scored Parker Lamm and Jeff Nelson
for a 7-6 ECU advantage. Watkins subsequently scored on a sacrifice
bunt by Tyler for the final run of the game.
Freshman Cam Colmore
(2-0) got the win, pitching two and two-thirds innings. He held Duke
(10-11) scoreless and didn't allow a hit. Colmore walked one and
struck out one.
Joe Ingle went the final
one and two-thirds innings for his third save. He struck out three
without allowing a hit, run or walk.
The Pirates committed
four errors and the Blue Devils scored three unearned runs.
ECU (14-7) offset its
fielding struggles with a 15-7 lead in hits. Mozingo went 3-for-5
with a double and an RBI. Morgan was 3-for-5 with a run driven in.
Watkins had two hits
with a double and three RBIs. Harman and Turner Brown each had two
hits and an RBI.
Jalen Phillips was
2-for-3 with a pair of RBIs for the Blue Devils. Cris Perez had two
doubles and an RBI in the loss. Jack Labosky and Jimmy Herron each
doubled for Duke.
ECU starts a three-game
home series with Jacksonville on Thursday at 6:30 p.m.
It
certainly didn't seem like a series
win over Monmouth this past weekend
at Clark-LeClair Stadium. Of course,
it certainly didn't seem like the
first day of spring, either.
