Depth...

 

[Guapo]

Just checking in now. Boneyard stopped loading after “2 outs bases loaded, big spot”

Hit refresh and

WOW

Bottom 4th, Avery Santos in to pitch. Simeone did fine, will probably get another start next weekend assuming Feole isn't back.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Yea, not bad by Simeone.

 

[dbmill]

Scoreless 4th inning for Santos.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Pile on here...let's really open this up.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Toppa singled, but got thrown out at 2nd. UL's defense is keeping them in this.

5-2 UConn going to the bottom of the 5th. Next few innings are huge to try and bridge this to Wallace.

 

[dbmill]

Santos stays in to pitch the 5th.

Toppa was thrown out stealing

Louisville picks up a run in the 5th to make it 5-3. Question is, does Santos stay in to start the 6th? As long as UConn is ahead, the only relievers who are likely to come in are Dandeneau, Gardner, and Wallace. I'm inclined to let him start the inning, and take him out if someone gets on.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Don't know that we win this stuck at 5 runs...

 

[dbmill]

Top 6th, UConn goes down 1-2-3.

 

[dbmill]

Lefty Caleb Wurster coming in to pitch the bottom of the 6th.

 

[4in16]

Wurster is in for Santos to start the 6th.

 

[UConNick]

That kid UL had pitching was a top-100 prospect who went to Montverde Academy of Precious Achiuwa fame. Not surprised he came in with a big fastball. Would like to see him out of the game. We need more runs.

 

[dbmill]

Wurster walks his hitter, and is coming out. Dandeneau coming in.

 

[HawkHusky]

That was a fast change.

 

[dbmill]

That was a fast change.

Lefty pitcher facing lefty batter situation.

 

[UConNick]

Clutch, C.J.!

Edit: also means Wyatt will be leading off the inning, limiting the damage he can do.

 

[dbmill]

Dandeneau gets out of the jam, stranding 2 runners. 5-3 UConn going to the top of the 7th.

 

[HawkHusky]

phew. great work cj.

 

[scotty0330]

That is huge considering where they were in the lineup. Massive inning for CJ.

 

[Guapo]

Awesome!!!

 

[dbmill]

Toppa single drives in Phillips to make it 6-3, top of 7th.
