West Virginia baseball didn't even need the full nine innings to take care of their rival Pitt in the Backyard Brawl.
The Mountaineers scored five runs in the second, before adding three more in the fourth, as they cruised to an 11-1 (8 inn.) victory over Pitt in the Backyard Brawl, earning them their 8th-straight win over the rival Panthers.
West Virginia was in trouble early, as the Panthers had the bases loaded with one out in the second. That's until, the Mountaineers got out of the jam on an inning-ending double play, as a line drive was caught by Gavin Kelly who flipped it to Brodie Kresser covering the second base bag to get out of the jam.
