Lots of future Huskies on here…
#9 isn’t too shabby. Although he won’t be a Husky, he’s still a UConn fan.

There have been a few times since I have been following UConn baseball that there has been a snow storm in Connecticut on the opening weekend. Listening to the games being played down south combined with moving the snow around makes for an interesting combination. We will see what happens this time around.

I have FUBO and they have a Perfect Game Channel. Hope to see Gabriel and some other Huskies highlighted soon!!

Great honor but you would think they could find a cooler place to play than Phoenix in July.

Retractable roof which stays closed during the summer ever since they changed to synthetic turf a few years ago. Temperature at Chase Field will be fine but enjoy the dry heat outside of Chase Field.
