Virginia Tech baseball shuts out ETSU 12-0 (WSLS)

BLACKSBURG, Va. – Virginia Tech’s pitching was stellar on Tuesday night. It started with junior Ryan Okuda who went 4.2 innings, giving up four hits and striking out four. While freshman Griffin Green picked up the win out of the bullpen — going 2.1 innings, allowing 1 hit and striking out two.

“That was probably one of our better played games this year,” said Hokies head coach John Szefc. “Our pitching staff did not walk a batter and only gave up one free base. Seven guys had RBIs, we had contributions from a lot of guys.”
