Roberts pitches another gem as #1 Cavs shut out Radford
Will Roberts (Jr., Richmond, Va.) followed up his perfect-game outing with seven innings of shutout pitching as he led the top-ranked Virginia baseball team to a 2-0 win over Radford Tuesday evening at Davenport Field.

Virginia recorded its ninth shutout of the season, which is tied for the third most in program history with the 2007 squad.

Virginia also lowered its season team ERA to 1.93 – its starting pitchers have not given up a run in the last 25.1 innings. Read more
