Four-Run Fourth Inning Leads To 5-3 Loss For USF  

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (May 19, 2006) – A four-run inning by the Mountaineers in the bottom of the fourth proved to be the difference as the University of South Florida baseball team (23-33, 11-15 BIG EAST) fell to West Virginia (35-19, 14-12 BIG EAST), 5-3, on Friday, May 19 at Hawley Field. Sophomore Davis Bilardello suffered his seventh loss of the season, allowing five runs (four earned) while striking out three batters in seven and two-thirds innings of action. Senior Brian Baisley went 2-for-4, including an RBI triple in the top of the ninth.

Pitt beat Georgetown tonight, so Georgetown is eliminated from the Big East Tournament. Pitt is still in it, needing to win tomorrow and have USF lose.

Let's hope we take care of business.

Georgetown lost in extra innings today to Pittsburgh. USF still needs one more win to get in the tournament.  More on the Oracle blog.  http://oraclesports.blogspot.com/
