Men UConn & 2025 Big East Baseball Tourney @Prasco Park, Mason Ohio (5/21>5/24). Gm5 v. CU @5p on FS1&FS2. Audio>MIXLR, Fox Sports 97.9/Varsity App

Top 3rd, Pudvar gives up a leadoff homer, 6-1 UConn.

After the homer, Pudvar issues a no out walk followed by a single. A no out double drives in 2 runs, 6-3 UConn.

With 1 out, a single puts runners on the corners. A fielder's choice ground out for the 2nd out brings in another run, 6-4 UConn.

Pudvar gets his second strikeout of the inning to end the inning. 6-4 UConn. Pudvar has thrown 82 pitches, so I'm not expecting him to last much longer in this game.

 

[BlueWolf25]

Is this offense fun to watch or what?

Is this offense fun to watch or what?

Except against Northeastern!

In fairness, that team is going to Omaha. I rank them above Vandy and Miami & on par with UNC

 

[ATLDYKA]

Pudvar getting hit hard. Has no command of his breaking ball. Having to rely on fast ball

 

[Bomber36]

OP is too hittable right now.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 3rd, Biller gets a 1 out single. Biller advances to 2B on a ground out for the 2nd out, and scores on a MacArthur. 7-4 UConn.

Top 4th, after a 2 out single, Pudvar has a scoreless inning with 2 strikeouts. 7-4 UConn. Pudvar has 7 strikeouts and has thrown 98 pitches so far.

I'm thinking that Pudvar will at least still be on the mound to start the next inning in an effort to preserve the UConn bullpen. We'll see if that happens.

 

[ATLDYKA]

The ump is giving their pitcher the low strike but not OP

 

[Bomber36]

Keep it coming guys... I have no link.

If it makes you feel better, it’s next to impossible to link to Flo games unless you subscribe. They have it figured out

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 4th, Rispoli and Shpur draw 1 out walks, a Daniels single loads the bases. All the runners tag and advance on a Minick sac fly for the 2nd out. 8-4 UConn.

 

[storrsroars]

Seems like a slow game. Mlore than 1.5 hrs, end of 4th.

 

[Marbles90]

Daniels' ball is a routine pop up hit a mile high to shallow right. All three fielders, 1b, 2b & RF all lose it in the lights or perhaps darkness. When all three players can’t see it, that’s a probably more on the field/lights than the players. Well take it…

 

[dbmill]

Top 5th, after a leadoff singe, Pudvar comes out of the game. Ian Cooke takes the mound.

Cooke gives up back to back 1 out singles which bring in a run, 8-5 UConn.

A 2 out walk loads the bases. A ground out ends the inning, Cooke had 2 strikeouts. 8-5 UConn.

 

[Bomber36]

Let’s go Cookie!

[Bomber36]

10 hits so far for X vs 6 for us. We gotta lock it down.

And I'm on Gig ethernet.

OK now let's put this game away.

He was safe.
