Toral accounts for four runs, including walk-off home run, in win over Pitt

Alex Toral, last year’s ACC home run leader, has certainly lived up to the expectations he set after last season.

Tied with Pitt in the bottom of the 11th inning, Toral hit a laser over the right field wall to give Miami a 5-4 walk-off win Friday afternoon at Mark Light Field.

“They pitched me pretty tough, but I feel comfortable right now,” Toral said. “I know the numbers don’t show too much but I feel good right now and I like the way I feel.”

The walk-off home run was Toral’s second of the game and fifth of the season.
