Kudos to Penders: Don't waste the bullpen; accept tonight's medicine (and the loss). Take two of three with a rested pitching staff.
So much for that.Top 7th, Padilla with a leadoff solo homer, 10-2. Nice to write something positive for a change tonight.
UConn loads the bases with walks and a hit by pitch with no outs. Pitching change. Chris Jones was saying that after their first 2 starting pitchers, the Georgetown bullpen is on the weak side.
It's like in last years South Bend regional when they got lit up against Notre Dame and Central Michigan and they said that the pitchers were tipping their pitches. If that's the case, the pitching coach has got to get that corrected.When you see a guy suddenly look like he’s throwing for the home run derby, he’s either injured or tipping his pitches. I’m guessing it’s the latter.
Win out and it is 4-2.Our last six games we are 3-3. That won't impress the seeding committee.
Win out and it is 4-2.
I don’t know if this was mentioned yesterday but Chris Jones said Austin Peterson was flown back to Connecticut to get X-rays on his foot
Yesterday Chris Jones mentioned that it appeared that Peterson's foot might be injured when Peterson came out of the game. The mention about the x-rays is new to me as of a few minutes ago when Chris Jones mentioned it.
