This is moronic keeping Mason in

 

[HawkHusky]

I’d like to see Mason come out now and bring in Wallace and PJ to close this one out. Mason will be on short rest come the AAC tourney and they need him full strength to make some noise in Clearwater.

I have mixed feelings about that. Winning this game is vital. I think I'd like 1 more inning from Feole. (Not at the jeopardy of his health tho.)

A fresh Wallace is better than Feole over 100 pitches. Plus Penders runs the risk of not only hurting the team in Clearwater but more importantly Feole

That's true. Didn't see the pitch count before I posted.

 

[Baseballguy]

114 pitches going into a short-rest start.

 

[HawkHusky]

Nice work today by Mason. Hopefully our guys can get him the W.

Woo hoo. Double play gets UConn out of the jam

 

[huskymedic]

Wow... another critical twin killer

 

[HawkHusky]

Wow is right. Come on insurance runs!

 

[ATLDYKA]

Nice job by Wallace. He still makes me nervous.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Neither team has hit with runners in scoring position.

I would would not say short rest but shorter rest for sure. The earliest UCONN will play is Tuesday with a good possibility they won't play until Wednesday. That gives him 4 or 5 days rest.

Another brutally high stress game. I would be surprised if we hold ECU to 2 runs the rest of the way.

 

[huskymedic]

Woot... woot! PJ!

 

[uconnbaseball]

Big K from Poulin!!! Still 3-2 UConn going to the bottom of the 8th.

That’s massive considering it’s 2-3 days less than what he usually has

 

[HawkHusky]

Come on Poulin. Close this out.

 

[Baseballguy]

W

 

[uconnbaseball]

Nice! Let's keep it rolling tomorrow!

No, it is one or two days less rest. He has been getting 6 days rest between outings.

Final: No. 10 ECU 2, No. 23 UConn 3. PJ Poulin has 14 saves, tying John Russell’s single-season record. That’s a very important win for the Huskies.

Nice afternoon.

Still pissed I'm gonna miss Saturday (and I swapped into working 7-3 tomorrow so I could have Saturday off so Twitter updates only for me till after 3).
