UNCW was unable to overcome a four-run second inning by the Pirates

GREENVILLE, North Carolina – Connor Litton homered to highlight a four-run second inning as 12th-ranked East Carolina topped UNCW 6-4 on Tuesday at Clark-LeClair Stadium.

Litton finished with two hits and knocked in two runs. Drew Hendrickson added two hits and scored a run.

Alec Burleson (2-0) earned the win in relief for the Pirates and Ryan Ross nailed down his third save.

UNCW starter Breydan Gorham (0-3) suffered the loss, allowing four runs in two innings.

Greg Jones collected a pair of single for the Seahawks while Mason Berne and Zack Canada both homered and drove in two runs.
