Bottom 4th, a 2 out 3 run homer for Xavier. 3-1 Xavier.

 

[dbmill]

Top 5th, with 1 out and 2 runners on base, Smith with an RBI double driving in a run, 3-2 Xavier. A Freeberger sac fly ties the game at 3.

 

[Bomber36]

Pretty good broadcast on Flo this time. Xavier does a nice job.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 5th, a leadoff solo homer for Xavier, giving them a 4-3 lead. With 1 out, Xavier loads the bases, and Sears is taken out of the game, and Devin Kirby takes the mound.

 

[Steve UConn72]

Two first pitch HR's for X this afternoon. Anyone watching? Were they cheapies in that bandbox? 310 down the lines and 380 to center? Those are wood bat era distances.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 5th, a 2 out RBI single brings in 2 runs to make it 6-3 Xavier. A walk loads the bases again, but they are all left on base.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Think we are finding out how spoiled we were with Donlan catching last year.

 

[dbmill]

Top 6th, Broadhurst with a no out 2 run homer, 6-5 Xavier. 2nd homer of the game for Broadhurst.

 

[Bomber36]

Broadhurst owns this guy.

 

[dbmill]

Top 6th, a 1 out double for Morton. Pitching change. 6-5 Xavier going to the bottom of the inning.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 6th, Kirby faces the minimum, with the inning ending on a double play. 6-5 Xavier.

Suspect that Kirby may stay in for as long as he is effective, basically helping to save a big chunk of the UConn bullpen for the doubleheader tomorrow.

 

[dbmill]

Top 7th, Huber with a 2 out solo homer to tie the game at 6. Studley follows with his own solo homer, 7-6 UConn.

 

[Bomber36]

Rhino!

 

[uconnbaseball]

Top 7th, Huber with a 2 out solo homer to tie the game at 6.

Great game so far. Both teams look like regional worthy teams.

 

[Bomber36]

BTB! 3 of our 4 would have been homers anywhere.

 

[dbmill]

Top 7th, following the 2 homers, UConn puts 2 more runners on base with singles by Broadhurst and Tammaro, but that is it for the UConn offense that inning. 7-6 UConn. Broadhurst has 4 hits on the game so far.

 

[Viet Vet]

Rhino!

It’s the same band box for both teams.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 7th, after 1 out, 2 batters reach base on a single off the wall and a hit by pitch. Kirby coming out, Ellisen coming in to pitch. A 2 out walk loads the bases. A ground out ends the inning with no runs coming in, 7-6 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Top 8th, UConn offense goes down in order, 7-6 UConn.

Bottom 8th, Zach Fogell in to pitch for UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 8th, Fogell with a scoreless inning after hitting a batter, he picks up 2 strikeouts. 7-6 UConn.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Bottom 8th, Fogell with a scoreless inning after hitting a batter, he picks up 2 strikeouts. 7-6 UConn.

Those Fogell stocks continue to rise.

 

[dbmill]

Top 9th, UConn offense goes down 1-2-3. 7-6 UConn.

Fogell starts the bottom of the 9th on the mound.

 

[Steve UConn72]

Xavier with 54 HR's on the season to this moment (after the top of the ninth). Love to see the Home vs. Away numbers on that total.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 9th, Fogell gives up a leadoff single. A sac bunt moves the runner to 2B with 1 out. Fogell coming out, Justin Willis coming into the game.

 

[dbmill]

Xavier with 54 HR's on the season to this moment (after the top of the ninth). Love to see the Home vs. Away numbers on that total.

One thing that would be easy to do is add up runs scored at home versus runs scored on the road or at neutral sites.
