The University of Cincinnati baseball team fell to No. 24 West Virginia in game two of their series with a score of 6-4. Despite a late rally that saw them score two runs in the ninth inning, the Bearcats couldn’t complete the comeback. Standout performances included a home run by sophomore Jack Natili and RBI contributions from the top four hitters in the order. Pitchers Kellen O’Connor and Joel Pineiro also made notable appearances on the mound. The series finale is set for Saturday at 2:00 p.m.
West Virginia took an early lead in the first inning and extended it with home runs in the fifth and sixth innings. The Bearcats managed to tie the game briefly in the fourth inning with Natili’s homer, but ultimately fell short. The team will look to bounce back in their upcoming Big 12 series at UC Baseball Stadium against Oklahoma State and Kansas State. Fans can purchase tickets for the remaining games on the schedule, including matchups against UW-Milwaukee and Indiana.
