Evan Blanco pitched six shutout frames, scattered five hits and struck out three to improve to 7-3 on the season. The lefthander, who garnered third team All-ACC honors earlier this week has not allowed an earned run in his last 13.1 innings pitched.
Harrison Didawick homered in his fifth-straight game and tied the UVA single-season record for home runs with his 23rd long ball of the season. His two-run shot in the top of the second kicked of the Cavalier scoring outburst and matched Jake Gelof’s mark established last season. The home run also moved him into a tie for third on the UVA single season runs scored list and now is five away from tying the program’s single-season record for runs scored co-held by teammate Griff O’Ferrall (2023) and Jarrett Parker (2009).
