GREENVILLE, N.C. – The East Carolina baseball team will conclude its fall practice this weekend with its annual Purple-Gold World Series at Lewis Field inside Clark-LeClair Stadium starting Friday, Nov. 5 at 3:30 p.m. (EDT).

The Pirates, who began team practice in September, will play the first of three seven-inning intra-squad scrimmages Friday, followed by game two on Saturday (10:50 a.m.) and game three Sunday (12 Noon). Admission is free to all Pirate fans for the weekend series.

Prior to the Purple-Gold Draft, which will be held Wednesday, eighth-year head coach Cliff Godwin named Zach Agnos and Ryder Giles as team captains.
