Richmond Defeats VMI Baseball 10-3

Box Score RICHMOND, Va. – The University of Richmond rallied Saturday for a 10-3 victory over the VMI baseball team in non-conference play from Pitt Field.

VMI scored three runs in the top of the first, as Justin Starke, Cody Warner and Will Knight came home after a Callen Nuccio hit. The Spiders answered with three in the bottom of the second on a three-run home run from Richie Ciufo. Richmond broke the game open with five runs in the sixth frame.

Nuccio had two hits, Knight reached base twice on the day, with a walk and a HBP, and Warner walked twice. Freshman Ty Swaim also had a base hit.
