Game 53: ECU 12- UNCW 5
Game 53: Tuesday May 12, ECU 12- UNCW 5
Pirate second-baseman Ryan Wood is the ‘there just ain’t no doubt’ MVP for the rubber match of the ECU-Wilmington series played Tuesday night at a very purple Brooks Field. Wood hit for the cycle in going 4-6 with four RBI and moved into a tie for first place with Kyle Roller in the number of homers hit this season (13).
Not that anyone’s counting, but Stephen Batts and Devin Harris are just behind in the Pirate HR derby with 12, Dustin Harrington has knocked out 11 while while Brandon Henderson is not out of reach at 9. As a team, the Diamond Bucs have put up an impressive 88 round-trippers for the year, which currently ranks third all time for ECU.
The Bucs used seven pitchers on ‘committee night’, with Bailey Daniels giving up three runs in the fourth and Mike Anderson notching his first ‘W’ of the year.
UNCW right-fielder Andrew Cane was taken a local hospital after a fierce collision with the fence in the sixth. Cane is a JH Rose grad and is the grandson of for ECU AD Bill Cain.
