Pirates Run-Rule UTSA In Six Innings, 10-2
April 06, 2024 | Softball
GREENVILLE, N.C. – Taylor Woodring hit two home runs and Emma Jackson added a grand slam in the fourth inning as East Carolina run-ruled UTSA 10-2 in six innings on Saturday afternoon at Max R. Joyner Family Stadium.
Woodring went 3-of-4 at the plate for the Pirates (28-11, 5-9 AAC) who recorded another double-digit games in hits and surpassed last season's 27 wins and have won the most games in a season since 2014.
The Pirates would jump out to a quick 2-0 lead in the first inning on Woodring's first homer, but the Roadrunners would answer with two runs in the top of the third to knot the game at 2-2.
ECU would load the bases in the bottom of the fourth to set up Jackson's grand slam that would give the Pirates a four-run lead and Woodring would follow up with her second bomb of the day to give ECU a 7-2 lead going into the fifth frame.
Anna Sawyer would hit a sacrifice fly to score Makenzie Mason in the bottom of the fifth and Kanisha Anderson would single to right field, scoring Kylee Schojan in the bottom of the sixth to give the Pirates the run-rule win.
Addy Bullis (8-4) tossed three strikeouts in five innings for the win.
