#20/24 UConn v. Tulane (Fri. 4/27@7p@Dunkin Donut Park,Sat.@2p@DDP & Sun.@11a @J.O.C.) TV Info Below

It's a credit to Penders that there are this many UConn baseball fans around (like you and I) to question him

As good as this team is -- even with the injuries -- I feel there is another gear this team can hit. To do so, we will need to start taking what the opponent is giving to us. We are good enough to earn runs, now we need to accept gifts as well.

Laughing at that Family Guy clip in response to the pick-off attempts.

The Family Guy clip is my absolute favorite thing. I laugh every time.

As much as I don't care for some of Penders strategy, I just love him as UConn's baseball coach. He has done a terrific job over his time at UConn, period.

 

[SAMCRO]

Good inning. 2 insurance runs. 6-1 to the 7th.

 

[uconnbaseball]

I would go Wallace here. Let's slam the door...no midweek games this week.

You called it.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Huge groundout there. 1 out, 2 on.

WHY SWING WHEN THEY HAVE THROWN 6 STRAIGHT BALLS!!?! WHY??????

I still liking taking in situations like that, but the philosophy has changed as a whole the last few years. Pitchers will try and get one over for a strike and a lot of times that's the best pitch you'll see

 

[Baseballguy]

UConn’s over aggressive approach has put a lot of pressure on opponents this year. It’s forced a very below average fielding percentage this year. Opponent’s fielding percentage is .959. That would be 259 out of 297 in the NCAA. Some plays are frustrating and stupid but I can’t argue with the results it has brought.

 

[uconnbaseball]

2 outs, 6-2 now. Kirsten should have gotten out of this inning unscathed. Terrific performance today.

CJ coming in.

 

[dbmill]

Two out, 1 run in, and Kersten is coming out of the game. He did terrific. Poulin coming in.

 

[HawkHusky]

Under-eager base-running for Tulane. LOL.

 

[HawkHusky]

Kersten was fantastic. Give the man the game ball!

 

[dbmill]

Poulin gets the out to end the 7th inning.

 

[SAMCRO]

UH 3-2 over ECU T7
USF 3-2 over Memphis T9
UCF 3-2 over WSU T5
UC 5-3 over KU T6

 

[SAMCRO]

Bases loaded, Topa coming to the plate with 1 away.
Pitching change for the Wave

 

[HawkHusky]

That at-bat by Moriarty is exactly what I like to see.

 

[HawkHusky]

UH 3-2 over ECU T7
USF 3-2 over Memphis T9
UCF 3-2 over WSU T5
UC 5-3 over KU T6

Houston's blown it open. Now up 6-2.

 

[dbmill]

Moriarty walks to load up the bases in the bottom of the 7th with 1 out. Pitching change.

Since Moriarty got back in the lineup he has been making some nice offensive contributions. Still, there is no doubt that he is in the lineup because of his defensive contributions at 3B, where he really does a good job.

 

[SAMCRO]

USF best Memphis 3-2.
Coogs now up 6-2 on ECU B7

 

[dbmill]

Houston's blown it open. Now up 6-2.

With these road wins over East Carolina, Houston rise in the RPI has been amazing. They are back in the NCAA tourney conversation big time.

 

[dbmill]

Bases loaded walk to Toppa makes it 7-2 UConn.

 

[SAMCRO]

Wow. Reliever comes in and throws 4 straight balls. 7-2 now.

 

[dbmill]

Wow. Reliever comes in and throws 4 straight balls. 7-2 now.

We've said it before, but that's college baseball for you.

 

[SAMCRO]

Prato K’s swonging. 2 out, based loaded, with Susi coming up.

 

[Stainmaster]

Us diehards who follow the team every year realize we aren't going to find another coach

Glad to hear you finally came to your senses.

 

[SAMCRO]

Susi grounds out to end it. 7-2 to the 8th

 

[dbmill]

As expected, Poulin back in for the top of the 8th.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Keep dealing PJ!

 

[dbmill]

Easy 1-2-3 8th inning for Poulin.

 

[SAMCRO]

Nice easy 8th! 1-2-3.
