GREENVILLE —
Turner Brown's two-run single with one out in the bottom of the ninth
lifted East Carolina to a 2-1 win over Southeastern Louisiana on the
first day of the 13th annual Keith LeClair Classic on Friday.
Left-handers Evan
Kruczynski of the Pirates and Kyle Cedotal of the Lions each pitched
eight scoreless innings.
The Lions (5-4) got a
leadoff single from Jameson Fisher in the top of the inning and
Carson Crites singled off ECU reliever Sam Lanier with one out to
put runners on the corners.
Nick Durazo came to the
mound for the Pirates but had no play on a bunt by Ryan Byers that
broke the scoreless tie.
Chris Holba came in to
get the last two outs. Crites was caught on an attempted steal of
third and Holba recorded a strikeout to strand Byers at third,
sending the Pirates into their final at-bat with a one-run deficit.
Eric Tyler walked to
start the bottom of the ninth for the ECU (7-2). Brady Lloyd came in
to pinch run. Dwanya Williams-Sutton had an infield hit that put
runners at first and second. Jeff Nelson was hit by a pitch to load
the bases.
Lloyd was retired at the
plate on a grounder to short by Kirk Morgan that left the bases
loaded.
Brown singled to center
to score Nelson and Williams-Sutton, ending the contest before 2,237
after two hours and 50 minutes.
Each team managed seven
hits. Parker Lamm was 2-for-3 for ECU. Derrick Mount went 3-for-4
for the Lions.
Cedotal walked four and
struck out four. Both Pirate runs were earned. Kruczynski yielded
five hits and was charged with an earned run while walking two and
striking out seven.

Maryland led Tennessee
8-3 after a five-run fourth inning and the Terrapins held on for a
10-9 win in the opening game of the LeClair Classic on Friday.
Andrew Bechtold was 3-for-4 with four RBIs for Maryland (4-4).
