The Mountaineers had 10 freshmen get into tonight’s game. Six of them were in the starting lineup and the newcomers scored four of WVU’s six runs. “We’re not playing freshmen just to get them on the field, we’re playing freshmen because they’re good players,” said Mazey. “Three of them had two hits apiece and three of them pitched, one of them got the win. These guys are all good players, and they’re helping us win games.” The Mountaineers would tack on two more runs in the bottom of the seventh. Vera led off with a single and Galusky followed with a bunt single before Corso’s bas hit to left drove them home. The Highlanders (2-15) added a run in the ninth to make it 6-2, but Radford would get no closer.

    In the seventh inning down by a score of 3-0, Charleston combined for four runs from shortstop Kyle Holder, first baseman Kane Sweeney, second baseman Hoy Jun Park and left-fielder Cesar Diaz. Despite the odds not being in their favor with Rome having a 90 percent win expectancy heading into the bottom of the 7th inning, Charleston prevailed in what was arguably the loudest game at “The Joe” this season. Friday marked the first playoff victory in the RiverDogs name. They were swept in their back-to-back post-season appearances in 2004 and 2005. Prior to this year’s RiverDogs squad, the last team to play in Charleston and obtain a playoff victory was the 1988 Charleston Rainbows, who defeated Myrtle Beach 3-1 in the opening round prior to being swept by Spartanburg 3-0 in the 1988 Finals.
