Men 2022 UConn Baseball @ NCAA Tournament’s Palo Alto, CA. Super-Regional vs #2 Stanford

[FfldCntyFan]

We're going to need quite a few runs this game. Let's get another three or four now.

 

[Bomber36]

Bowser has a lot of bite. Almost poked that one out.

 

[BugsyCT]

Actually glad we got out of that 1st with the lead despite the mistakes.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

I think the best way to have some success pitching to them is to be around the zone (without grooving it) while changing speeds. Pitch to contact without allowing them to tee up.

I know, that's a lot easier said than done.

This is going to be a 5+ hour game with the tight strike zone from this umpire

I actually think the home plate ump is calling a good game. By my count he has only blown one call (the first strike to Simmons). The idiot announcer is making it seem like everything close should be called a strike.

Top 2nd, Stock with a 2 out double, but nothing comes of it. 3-2 UConn.

Need Cooke to give us one good inning here. Hopefully, he can keep folks from hitting to Dana.

 

[Jimdish255]

We're going to need a lot of runs today to keep pace.

Bottom 2nd, Coe in to pitch for UConn. Figure Coe and Kirby will need to throw multiple innings today.

 

[ScottVib]

Coe into the game.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Cooke was an opener? I'm curious if Penders saw something and didn't want to take any chances.

I'm at work trying to pick up what's happening from the play by play. How did Huber not score from second on a double?

We also need a few stress free, easy innings.

It was a "double". Fly ball that dropped out of the LF's glove

Gotta say, this Stanford crowd is light years more tolerable than Maryland. Not only was Run DMV kid insufferable, but the crowd booed everything that wasn’t a strike for their pitchers. Much more laid back crowd here.

 

[BugsyCT]

There’s a nice double play turn!

They’re smarter too!

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 2nd, Coe with a scoreless inning with the aid of a double play. Coe leaves 1 runner on base after an inning ending strikeout. Stefanoni warming in the bullpen. Add him to the possible multiple inning list along with Coe and Kirby.

 

[JeannoCT]

Nice job Garrett.

 

[Bomber36]

Good inning…

 

[huskymedic]

Need Cooke Coe to give us one good inning here.

 

[AzHusky]

Will take that inning

 

[businesslawyer]

I don't understand pulling Cooke there. I assume there is a plan for the 9 innings but now I'm not sure what it is unless it relies heavily on Enzo.

Good inning by Coe. But given his pitch count from Saturday, I'd be surprised if you can count on him for more than one more.

A surprise to me as well. But guess the coaches figured Cooke didn't have it today. Cooke did throw 31 pitches that inning, which certainly is not a good sign.

Lead off walk
