Georgia Tech would quickly cut the lead when second baseman Wade Bailey homered from his leadoff spot in the bottom of the half.
In the top half of the fourth, Virginia started flexing its muscle. After the Jackets went to the bullpen to summon relief pitcher Ben Sniederjans. They couldn’t have foreseen the outcome after the teams traded runs to make the score 4-3.. The right handed pitcher started out with two quick outs, then a seeing eye single to Andy Weber.
