Every one pitches in as Mountaineers down Hokies, 10-5

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The calls to the bullpen may have required several overage charges Wednesday night.

And while the West Virginia baseball team defeated Virginia Tech 10-5 at Monongalia County Ballpark, it was anything but just another day at the park.

In short — which is to say that tongue in cheek, because there was nothing short about this game — the teams combined to use 17 pitchers. At three hours and 48 minutes, it was the Mountaineers’ longest nine-inning game this season.

Virginia Tech’s pitching card looked more its starting lineup — the Hokies (20-27) used nine.
