Men UConn @ San Diego State Aztecs (Thursday 3/16/23 @9p, Friday 3/17/23 @9p, Saturday 3/18/23 @9p & Sunday 3/19/23 @4p) All times EST. Games on Mixlr

[ATLDYKA]

With no video available for the game, I suggest you listen to Chris Jones doing the play by play of the game on MIXLR, an audio streaming service. I love listening to him do these games.

I usually do, just following game tracker tonight and listening to the WBC USA game instead.. Hope these base running blunders don't come back to bite us.

Bottom 5th, S. Quigley gives up soft singles to the first 2 hitters. A 1 out rbi single makes the score 8-1 UConn with runners on the corners. Quigley gets out of the inning with no more runs coming in, striking out the last batter for the 3rd out. Quigley at 88 pitches, so perhaps he will go another inning.

 

[dbmill]

Top 6th, Smith and Freeberger with 2 out singles, putting 2 runners in scoring position when Freeberger advances to 2B on the throw. A 2 run RBI double for Huber makes the score 10-1 UConn. The Huskies with another successful 2 out rally attempt.

Huber with 3 hits and 2 doubles on the night.

 

[ATLDYKA]

These 2 out rallies are incredible.

Bottom 6th, Tom Ellisen comes in to start the inning on the mound.

Ellisen gives up a leadoff triple, but strands the runner, getting 2 strikeouts in the process. 10-1 UConn.

Pitching staff is starting to gel…

 

[uconnbaseball]

We’ve looked like a top 15 team in 4 of the past 6 games. In the 2 that we did not, Hawaii pitching bailed us out and Willis choked yesterday.

Our starters are turning into a strength.

 

[dbmill]

Top 7th, a scoreless inning for the UConn offense, 10-1 UConn. Another double play ball that inning.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 7th, Ellisen gets the first 2 batters out, then SDSU loads the bases. A wild pitch makes the score 10-2 UConn. A single drives in 2 more runs to make it 10-4 UConn. A strikeout ends the inning, Ellisen has thrown 50 pitches in 2 innings of work.

Bottom 7th, Ellisen gets the first 2 batters out, then SDSU loads the bases. A wild pitch makes the score 10-2 UConn. A single drives in 2 more runs to make it 10-4 UConn. A strikeout ends the inning.

Wonder if Ellison still gets the midweek start based on numbers of pitches tonight?

Top 8th,

Wonder if Ellison still gets the midweek start based on numbers of pitches tonight?

I was wondering the same thing. Possible Ellisen could still get the start and go a short stint on Wednesday, but I would think he would have to come out of the game after pitching those 2 innings.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Another DP, amazing.

 

[dbmill]

Top 8th, Drew Kron pinch hits for David Smith, and hits into a double play. Scoreless inning for the UConn offense. 10-4 UConn.

Bottom 8th, Will Nowak starts the inning on the mound for UConn. Kron takes over in LF.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 8th, after a strikeout for the first out, Nowak walks 2 straight batters, and then a single loads the bases. Nowak is coming out of the game, Devin Kirby takes the mound.

Kirby with a strikeout for the second out. A wild pitch brings in a run, 10-5 UConn. Another strikeout ends the inning.

Nice bounce back here in the top of the 9th.

Lol who was saying that we should take Padilla out of the lineup Jonesy?

 

[uconnbaseball]

16 hits, nice rebound for the offense tonight.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 9th, Ryan Daniels who had pinched hit in the previous inning is now playing 2B, Tammaro moves to SS. As expected, Devin Kirby still on the mound.
