Officially our last Big East event ever. By the way its strange seeing the new logo in action for the first time with the ESPN graphics.

Big East champions baby!!!

I think a walk up by 7 in the ninth isn't ruh-roh worthy. I like to save my ruh-rohs for serious trouble. This cavalier ruh-rohing just waters the term down.

Plus even if he walked the next guy or gave up a couple hits, we had a full bullpen ready to go. Just trying to give the kid a chance for a CG.

Sweet! Congrats UConn Baseball!

WOW! Great tournament performance by these huskies! It is particularly sweet in the last true Big East championship that we beat Louisville, Rutgers and ND who are moving on to "other places". Hope we can continue to play well in the NCAA's.

You have a lower Rut Roh threshold than I do. Two much heartbreak over the years. Need I say that I am a Red Sox fan?

Touché. I was still another runner or two away from a ruh roh, At that point, I was just hoping Marzi could finish for the great storyline. A complete game on 2 days rest is pretty remarkable. If they didn't make that catch in RF, they might have pulled him there. You'd hope the pen could protect a seven-run lead, but thankfully we won't have to find out.

Agree, but his tank was pretty much empty in the 9th.
