Pitchers Ineffective

Spigone and LaCross were both
relatively ineffective as Pirate
batters pounded the pair for five
runs and fifteen base hits in seven
innings. Spigone left the game
under duress in the sixth trailing
5-3 and seemed in line for a loss
until Sroba's homer took him off
the hook.

ECU'S Hastings went all the way
and absorbed the loss. Both
Virginia and East Carolina were
charged with two errors afield.

Wahoo Captain Ed Kihm was
the star of the nightcap as he
matched four-hitters with Pirate
left hander Hal Baird. The game
remained scoreless through
regulation with the Cavaliers finally
breaking the tie and winning with
an unearned run in the visitors'
eighth.
