Seven pitch inning for their closer. Now we'll see him the rest of the way. Abaolute worst case scenario. Guy has an 0.41 ERA and we don't even make him break a sweat.
 
This is painful without being able to see or hear it
 
Devin Over still in for the top of the 8th, and is greeted by a lead off single. He needs to come out.

Now it is the real crunch time for the UConn offense, the bottom of the 8th. They keep fighting back, can they do it again?
 
Here we go again. A Toppa double scores DeRoche-Duffin to tie the game!
 
We need one more double. And then three outs in the 9th. Let's get this.
 
5-5! Rbi single to the opp. field by Topa (sp?), set up by a sac bunt. Runner on 2nd, 1 out.

I'm listening to WHUS, but the game is on the bases loaded channel on ESPN3
 
I should point out that DD started that rally with a single on the first pitch - after I was critical of the aggressive swinging in the seventh. Quite possible the staff had a good scouting report on Gorst throwing first pitch strikes and wanted everyone to be aggressive.

Great job by the bullpen today too. Unlucky bloop double and then the error compounded it. Tall order to come back against Gorst twice.

Game over and season over. But what a season it was. It was not without its pleasures.

Damn.

Kinda mediocre season ends with much excitement with red hot finishing kick, a Conference championship and 3 NCAA games.
 
That's it. Nice run by UConn. Team is a good bunch of fighters.
 
Well, at least they tried, didn't embarass themselves, and made us proud.
