Bottom 6th, a leadoff single for Simmons, he steals 2B, but he is stranded there. Game tied at 5.
 
Our best times are available and rested so there’s absolutely no excuse to lose this game.

Of course, it doesn't always work that way in baseball. Not uncommon for lesser teams to beat better teams in this sport on any level.

Speaking of which, St. John's has a late in the game lead over Xavier. 8-5 lead St. John's lead after 7 innings.

Top 10th, Fogell with another 1-2-3 inning, he has 4 strikeouts in this pitching stint. This is the most innings (3) Fogell has pitched in a game this season according to Chris Jones. Game tied at 5.

Fogell is solid!/impressive piece of the pen. Great add this year.
 
Bullpen is money again. To win in the ncaa regionals, we might need to utilize unorthodox bullpen strategies, like what Tampa used to do with openers.

I suggested something along these lines and it wasn’t very popular but yes I agree

Bottom 11th, Simmons with a 1 out walk, first baserunner for UConn since the 7th inning. Simmons advances to 2B on a fly out. He is left on base. Game tied at 5.
 
Having a lot of trouble with off speed stuff. Reminds me of some of mcconnell’s great UL teams that could never solve a soft tossing lefty.
 
Top 12th, after a leadoff single, Garbowski throws out a stolen base attempt for the final out. Fogell faces the minimum 3 batters. Game tied at 5.

Great job Fogell and Garbs! How many pitches is Fogell up to…?
 
These replays are ridiculous. If the ump calls him safe, Padilla simply tags him because he over slid the base by a mile. But because he called him out, Padilla walks off the field. I guess you cannot assume the call won’t be overturned.
