8th inning come from behind rally has put UConn up 5-2. Zapata has another notable start going, not allowing a hit until the 6th inning.

Hmm. Quinnipiac up in bottom of the 8th, one out, one baserunner on, and Ryan Radue coming in to pitch. It's audition time!

Radue allows one hit, but then gets two outs, a run scoring in the process. Mahaney comes in to close it in the 9th, UConn winning 5-3. In post game interview, Penders says that Radue threw just enough strikes to get the job done. Penders sounded like Radue might be back in line for getting some relief innings this weekend against Louisville.
