UConn and the 2018 AAC Baseball Tournament (Updated ~ Check Schedule Change for UConn games)

[HawkHusky]

Damn. UCONN strands runners on 2nd and 3rd. Still 1-0 after 2.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Too many k's on our part.

 

[lavuuk153]

Solo shot...tie game.

 

[dbmill]

Top 3rd, 2 out solo homer for USF ties the game at 1.

 

[HawkHusky]

Kersten struggling to get that 3rd out each inning.

 

[huskymedic]

Didn’t think we’d win 1-0...

 

[HawkHusky]

ECU up 4-1 and still threatening in the 3rd.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 3rd, UConn leaves 2 runners on base. Game tied at 1.

 

[lavuuk153]

Can anyone on this team get a hit with risp?

I’ve thought about this for a few weeks now, I think it’s time to move Feldstien to the 5 hole and Troy to the 4th. Feldstien’s approach is terrible in RBI spots. He could care less about moving runners or shortening his swing.

Top 4th, quick 1-2-3 inning for Kersten.

 

[UConNick]

Perfect inning there for Kersten. Exactly what you wanna see against 7-8-9. Now hopefully we can get the lead back before their big guys come up in the 5th.

 

[HawkHusky]

Top 4th, quick 1-2-3 inning for Kersten.

Kersten certainly doing his part. Need good, smart bats to show up.

 

[UConn4ever]

Wow a 6 pitch inning

That has always been one of the things I love about Woody is that you see him choke up on the bat with 2 strikes and just looks to make contact.

I've mentioned it before, Feldstein is an all or nothing guy. Sometimes he'll get the big hit, but often it ends up being a big swing and a strikeout. Like you, I'm tired of it. You don't need huge swings to get a big hit to help the club.

Big swings are fine but he needs to know the situation they are acceptable. He’s either not a team player or he’s not smart enough to know when. His strikeouts are momentum killers

His strikeouts are often also inning killers.

Yup. I always hope we only have 1 out when he comes to the plate.

 

[dbmill]

Two out rallies are tough, but UConn could use one here with 2 runners on in the bottom of the 4th.

So much for that rally.

 

[HawkHusky]

Another 2 left on base...

[dbmill]

CJ Dandeneau in to pitch in the 5th. I'm a bit surprised at this move. Kersten was at 56 pitches, wasn't doing badly, but they didn't want him to face the top of the order again.

 

[ATLDYKA]

He took Kersten out? Surprising after the quick inning.
