Pitching Report: Game 1- Coastal Carolina

OMAHA, NE--  JC Cloney pitched a gem Monday night, shutting out the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers at TD Ameritrade Park and jumping to a 1-0 lead in a best of 3 College World Series finals. Scoring came early for the Cats with Cody Ramer leading off with a ground rule double and Ryan Aguilar bringing in the first run with a single to centerfield.

The Chants struggled squaring up much of anything Cloney delivered to the plate. Coastal threatened in the final frame with Anthony Marks getting on and Zach Remillard grinding out an infield hit, but to no avail as both were followed by a 4-6-3 DP and a K.
