Charlotte drops second game of series to FIU

After coming off two walk-off wins in three days, the 49ers drop the second game of their Conference USA series opener against Florida International, 8-5, despite a 12-hit performance.

Colton Laws started the game for the 49ers, throwing just 3.2 innings, giving up five hits on four runs and surrendering three walks. The 49ers used six pitchers throughout the game, with Drew Morrison and J.D. Prochaska being the only relievers to not surrender a run.

Charlotte took the lead in the third inning after Nick Daddio led off with a bloop single down the right field line, getting moved up 90 feet off a Hunter Jones sacrifice bunt.
