Virginia got its College World Series started with a 5-3 victory, thanks to a pair of late runs and dominant work from the bullpen.
Kenny Towns ripped a go-ahead double in the top of the eighth and a two-out single from Ernie Clement in the ninth made it a two-run game. Any lead was safe with Josh Sborz pitching. The right-hander was outstanding in five one-hit innings of relief, striking out five.
Daniel Pinero was also great, picking up three hits and three stolen bases for a Virginia team that was national runner-up a year ago.
