Thinking there will be an update - it's a mess. Susi, Lefevre, Stefanski, etc...

 

[uconnbaseball]

I suppose two catchers would give us a better shot at throwing someone out than one.

Good 1st inning by Ronnie.

We are facing a kid with a 7.00 ERA. Do not make this guy look like Nolan Ryan please.

I suppose two catchers would give us a better shot at throwing someone out than one.

... or at least reducing passed balls.

Mid 2: Rossomando collects a pair of strikeouts in the second. Four already for the RHP. 0-0 going to the Bot 2

 

[uconnbaseball]

The reincarnation of Cy Young is suffocating us.

Mid 6: P.J Poulin gets the final out of the sixth.
Rossomando: 5.2 IP 2 H 1 ER 5 BB 5 K
#UConn 3, Sacred Heart 1

Poulin has a 1-2-3 7th inning. He continues to do well late in this season.

 

[dbmill]

8th inning, Poulin gets out of a no out, bases loaded jam with no runs coming in.

 

[dbmill]

Aside from the weekend starters and John Russell, Poulin seems to be one of the few pitchers that Coach Penders has some confidence in. At least Poulin is allowed to work out of tough situations.

Bases Loaded, 0 Outs... No Problem! P.J gets out of the jam by fielding his position. Starts a 1-2-3 DP before a 1-3 putout to end the Inn!

 

[dbmill]

Feldstein 2 run homer in the 8th makes it 5-1 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Sam Nepiarsky in to pitch the 9th. I was beginning to wonder if he was hurt as he hasn't pitched in a while.

 

[huskymedic]

That'll work...

 

[dbmill]

Three fly ball outs for Nepiarsky. UConn wins 5-1. I doubt this win will move UConn's RPI much, but a win is a win.

 

[dbmill]

It may have just been Sacred Heart, but possibly the best thing about this win is that John Russell didn't have to pitch.

 

[huskymedic]

Nice pic:

 

[uconnbaseball]

We cannot hit bad pitching. We just can't.

Pitchers continue to be able to grind, which is good.
