Two questions for today. Who starts? To me, the most likely is Kersten, but if they want to save Kersten for tomorrow the most likely alternative to me would be Colby Dunlop, as he proved capable last week of going 5 innings, which is more than the 2 or 3 that Jimmy Wang would likely go. Also, will Christian Fedko play in the field with someone other than Feole starting? My wife seems to think that Nucerino is not available this weekend, so if that is so the non hitting Chiovitti would be the most likely alternative.

Really not sure how I feel about Phillips at 3rd in an elimination game...

That plus Jimmy Wang on the mound. I would have thought they would want a little length with Kersten or Dunlop on the mound. At any rate, I would think today we will see plenty of relievers like Simeone, Mayock, and Johnson. Will be interesting to see if Dunlop comes in first after Jimmy Wang, or if they save him for a possible game tomorrow. Also, Fedko stays at 2B.

Tarp going on the field. Start time delayed.

I’m trying to stall

When Mike Crispino mentioned the tarp going on the field, I thought of it as the @huskymedic delay.

Bummer, going to the Ga Tech/Auburn game tonight and was hoping to get to see most of this game before I need to leave. Oh well.

Just checked the Oklahoma City radar. Yup, looks like thunderstorms coming shortly.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Very severe looking thunderstorms. Typical for the region. Usually move quickly though.

And to think I was wondering how I was going to get my various errands and yard chores done this weekend with a 2pm game today and possibly two games tomorrow. Beginning to look like not a problem.

 

[uconnbaseball]

This game is going to overlap with the Yanks/Sox game. As a life-long Yankee fan I'm gonna have to watch..............The Huskies! Go UConn!

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

We’re on!

 

[dbmill]

Ian Miller starting pitcher for Harvard.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Well that’s a UConn way to ensure you don’t have a big inning

 

[Stainmaster]

Yuck.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Leadoff walk...but Toppa gets caught in a rundown between 1st and 2nd. Next two players get out meekly.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 1st, 1-2-3 inning for Jimmy Wang. No score. 12 pitches for Wang.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

1-2-3 inning for Wang

 

[uconnbaseball]

Nice job Christian, earning that walk!

 

[Stainmaster]

Aggression pays off that time. Nice.
