Feole's gotten better in that regard ever since he became the Friday night starter when Cate got hurt.

 

[HawkHusky]

I agree 100% which is why it drives me nuts. There are times when you just don't need to be so aggressive. Don't give them outs when they are struggling to get them.

Yup. Same thing we talked about last weekend. Gotta play smarter in the Regional.

 

[HawkHusky]

Feole's gotten better in that regard ever since he became the Friday night starter when Cate got hurt.

Absolutely. Even when Cate comes back, I hope Feole remains our Friday guy.

 

[dbmill]

With the help of a double play, Feole faces the minimum of 3 batters in the bottom of the 4th. 3-0 UConn. Feole now at 54 pitches.

 

[HawkHusky]

Great catch by the Memphis outfielder.

 

[Guapo]

Memphis commentators very complimentary of the UCONN Baseball program.

Following here, can you summerize?

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 5th, Feole hits the first batter, then retires the side. 5 strikeouts, 63 pitches for Feole.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Playing very well so far.

 

[HawkHusky]

They certainly did their homework. Talked about:

- Our baseball history (CWS appearances)
- New baseball/softball/soccer facilities to come
- How we schedule and our quality road record
- Feldstein's absence and how Penders is an old-school kind of coach who holds everyone accountable (apparently Feldstein was late to a few team meetings)

I've never watched another school's broadcast where they were as knowledgeable and complimentary of the opponent's program. Really good stuff (and quality camera-work) by Memphis.

 

[hardcorehusky]

Getting Feole deep and or blowing this wide open saves the important pen guys for the rest of the weekend. Hopefully we can put a crooked number up soon.

 

[HawkHusky]

You guys think Penders had a case or not?

 

[uconnbaseball]

Why did UM sac bunt???

We are crazy unlucky today.

 

[HawkHusky]

Susi gotta catch that.

 

[HawkHusky]

Memphis scores. 3-1 UCONN. Bottom of the 6th. Runner on 1st. 1 out.

 

[dbmill]

3-1 UConn after 6 innings. 76 pitches for Feole, so he is in good shape.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Get that back and we will be looking great!

 

[HawkHusky]

Hopefully UCONN can put up a couple more runs and Feole can finish out the game.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Too close for comfort.

I know someone at work that knows cate family and would like to get him tickets to Houston series.

Will he pitch? and would it be fri or sat in your opinion? Thanks in advance

 

[dbmill]

Top 7th, UConn goes down 1-2-3 for the first time tonight.

 

[HawkHusky]

Lots of UCONN pop-ups.

Tim Cate has another mound session tomorrow. From what Chris Jones says, they are not rushing him back, so I wouldn't count on it.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 7th, Feole strikes out the side. 3-1 UConn. 91 pitches, 8 strikeouts for Feole.

 

[HawkHusky]

Feole pitching great yet again. Bats need to give him more cushion.
