RHP John Paone (1-3, 5.56 ERA, 43.2 IP, 19 BB, 50 SO) is on the mound today for the Cavaliers, and here is how Virginia is going to line up for game two in this series:
1. CF AJ Gracia
2. 2B Joe Tiroly
3. 1B Sam Harris
4. LF Harrison Didawick
5. C Jake Weatherspoon
6. DH Kyle Johnson
7. 1B Antonio Perrotta
8. SS RJ Holmes
9. 3B Noah Murray
Virginia fell behind early against Cal thanks to a grand slam from the Golden Bears, but they got their own grand slam just moments later from Kyle Johnson that cut the lead to 5-4. However, UVA would not score again in the game and they will look to snap their four-game losing streak in ACC play this afternoon.
