Men UConn @ #25 USC Trojans (3/15/22 @ 9p EDT on PAC12 Network & MIXLR)

Bottom 7th, Cooke with a 1-2-3 inning, he is at 80 pitches. Wonderful performance.

Cooke is efficient and shows what happens when you pound the zone with good stuff.

Top 8th, Ben Huber with a 1 out solo homer. 7-0 UConn.

 

[CL82]

Oh man. You knew that was gone off the bat

 

[Tmill15]

And there’s the Huber power right there! Wow what a homer. 434 feet!!!

Not many young college pitchers have the control Cooke has shown so far. No walks so far, continuing the low walk trend in games for UConn pitching this season.

 

[ATLDYKA]

We thought Huber, Donlan and Padilla would all be good defensively, but man have they all been impressive offensively!!

Top 8th, Ben Huber with a 1 out solo homer. 7-0 UConn.

Bottom 8th, Cooke on the mound to start the inning. That's something considering he hasn't had any starts this season yet. Coe and Afthim have been warming in the bullpen.

How many pitches is he at? Pac 12 guys haven't said.

He was at 80 to start the inning. I mentioned that after the 7th inning.

1BB in first career start (and it came in the bottom of the 8th w/ 2 outs)!!

 

[dbmill]

Top 9th, UConn offense leaves runners on the corners. 7-0 UConn.

 

[Pudge]

Something woke Ben Huber up in California. Make sure he gets back on the plane east.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Do you think it's possible they go with the other Freshman Sullivan tomorrow night? I do like Coe also.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 9th, Afthim gives up a couple walks and a single to bring in a run with 1 out. UConn still up 7-1. Garrett Coe coming in to pitch.

 

[ATLDYKA]

That may have just answered my question.

 

[dbmill]

Do you think it's possible they go with the other Freshman Sullivan tomorrow night? I do like Coe also.

I figured Coe would start tomorrow night, but so much for that with him in the game now. Not really sure who it could be at this point tomorrow.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 9th, Coe gets the last 2 outs, UConn wins 7-1!!!

[uconnbaseball]

Great win! It might be a Rays style bullpen game tomorrow. Afthim and Coe can still give us an inning maybe, and everyone else in the pen is rested (including Willis). I'm not worried.

Maybe Sullivan?

What an electric performance tonight by Ian Cooke and a great 7-1 win over #25 USC. A very quality win that helps the resume a lot!! Could very well see USC again come tourney time, you never know!!

 

[Bomber36]

Great win!

Wow gotta be close to a ranking
