I like the perspective that Yahn brings...

 

[uconnbaseball]

Dunlop seems nervous. I bet he settles in after this inning.

 

[dbmill]

3-0 Louisville after the 1st, 21 pitches for Dunlop, including 2 hit batters, 1 unearned run.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 1st, UConn goes down 1-2-3.

 

[uconnbaseball]

2 errors already...Dunlop not getting help vs a top 5 team. Hope he hangs in there.

Chris Jones and company reported the Prato error as a hit. Whatever the case, that runner just scored, so it is now 4-0 Louisville with 2 out in the 2nd.

 

[dbmill]

Three run homer for Louisville makes it 7-0. Looks like we will be seeing the back of the bullpen today.

 

[huskymedic]

Welp... Dunlop clearly didn’t have it today. Who follows?

Only thing to do is chip away and keep from getting embarrassed @ this point.

Woof

The better long-relief guys (Haus, Simeone) are probably being saved for tomorrow. With everything out of reach, I don’t think a freshman parade would be the worst idea.

A number of pitchers who we haven't seen, probably freshmen.

 

[uconnbaseball]

I want to see some good at bats off this guy, regardless of score.

Unless UConn makes a big comeback, we won't be seeing Dandeneau, Gardner, and Wallace. Probably will see Avery Santos at some point, in addition to freshmen.

I also want to see how some of these freshmen (the redshirt variety as well) pitchers do. UConn needs to build some pitching depth this season.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Nice at bat by Fedko, eventually walking after a 9 pitch at bat.

 

[dbmill]

Dunlop in for the 3rd inning, Angus Mayock is warming up.

 

[dbmill]

Dunlop gives up a 2 run homer in the 3rd to make it 9-0. Have to think he will be coming out soon.

 

[UConNick]

Another UL homer makes it 9-0... I'm tuning out. If the game improves I won't rule out coming back, but this one looks lost early. At least we won yesterday and can still win the series tomorrow.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Dunlop is really taking it on the chin. Hopefully he rebounds in a big way next week.

 

[dbmill]

Nlce inning for Mayock in relief.

Chin, nose, both eyes... once the swelling goes down it’ll be interesting to see how he responds.

 

[dbmill]

Mayock gives up two runs in the 4th to make it 12-1, Jimmy Wang is warming up.

 

[uconnbaseball]

RBI double by Prato makes it 12-2.

Bennett has pitched excellently but poor defense behind him, coupled by some lengthy at bats, has worked the pitch count up.

 

[dbmill]

Jimmy Wang in to pitch the 6th inning. Chris Jones is relating his walk on story. Strikes out his first batter.

 

[dbmill]

Wang throws a scoreless inning with 2 strikeouts.
