DURHAM, N.C. – No. 11 Duke (20-8, 6-6 ACC) came back on two different occasions and used a five-run, seventh inning rally to come away with a 7-4 win over No. 9 Virginia (22-6, 7-5 ACC) on Saturday (March 30) at Jack Coombs Field.

Virginia led 2-0 in the top of the third and 3-2 in the top of the seventh but it was ultimately a five-run, seventh inning that proved to be the difference in the game. The five-run frame was the fifth by an UVA opponent this season.

Four Cavaliers put forth multi-hit efforts including Casey Saucke who went 3-for-5 with an RBI. Starting pitcher Kevin Jaxel, making his second career start, pitched five innings allowed three hits and two runs while striking out four. He did not allow a hit until an infield single that led off the fourth.
