That's more like it.
Six days after an embarrassing 15-3 loss in Greenville, NC State turned the tides on the ECU Pirates at Doak Field Monday night, getting a three-run homer from Evan Mendoza and 6.2 solid innings from Ryan Williamson to triumph 6-1.
After ECU scored its lone run of the game to take a 1-0 advantage in the second, the Pack rallied for a four-spot in the bottom of the frame and never looked back. Brett Kinneman knotted the score with a double scoring Preston Palmeiro. With Chance Shepard, who had followed Palmeiro's single with a walk, and Kinneman aboard, Mendoza's third homer of the season chased Pirate starter Nick Durazo and made it 4-1.
