Another multi hit game for him with a walk thrown in. He continues to make you and me look good, and that isn't easy.

Pinch hit Phillips for C Winkel please

Pinch hit Phillips for C Winkel please

Chris Winkel is going to stay in for his defense no matter what.

I know, just not liking his batting right now. But I will take a HBP

Extend the inning and snuff out the remaining light.

 

[dbmill]

Chris Winkel hit by pitch brings in another run to make it 10-6. Bases loaded.

 

[dbmill]

Moriarty sac fly makes it 11-6.

 

[dbmill]

Pat Winkel hit by a pitch in the helmet. Comes out of the game for what sounds like precautionary measures. Thad Phillips pinch runs.

Randy Polonia warming up.

Amenities granted.

Ballgame over due to darkness... 8-6 win. T8 doesn't count.

A road win over Bryant will do some good for UConn's RPI. Bryant was at 59 before this game, so it is another quality road win for the Huskies.

Final: #UConn 8, Bryant 6 Game called in the middle of the 8th with the Huskies leading 11-6 due to darkness. Game will revert to last completed inning, none of stats count in Huskies three-run top of 8th. Huskies move to 20-12 with the victory!

 

[uconnbaseball]

Good start for redemption purposes. A shame our great inning vs their lights out closer will not count.

 

[huskypantz]

This is a solid win. Nice job guys!

 

[uconnbaseball]

Another opportunity for a decent win tomorrow!

Final: #UConn 11, Bryant 6 We have gone to the rule book and the stats during the top of the 8th inning will count! Regardless, Huskies secure road win at Bryant!

Huskies Beat Bryant 11-6 in Shortened Game

Notes

• With his two walks today, Christian Fedko has 32 walks on the season. That total is more than any Husky had in 60 games last season (Zac Susi, 30 walks).
• Anthony Nucerino has recorded five-straight multi-hit games. During the stretch, the UConn outfielder is 10-17 (.588) to move his average to .341 on the season.
• Chris Winkel recorded a hit to extend his hitting streak to a team-high 12 games. The junior also recorded his team-leading ninth multi-RBI game.
• Back-to-back seasons the Huskies and Bulldogs have had their game called due to darkness.
• Karl Johnson picked up his first career victory.

These games shouid start at 2:30 if possible.

These games shouid start at 2:30 if possible.

Next season UConn's new baseball stadium will have lights. There will be no worry about those games having to be called on account of darkness. I'm hoping that these midweek games will have a later starting time such as 4pm or even a bit later.

Huskies Beat Bryant 11-6 in Shortened Game

Notes

• With his two walks today, Christian Fedko has 32 walks on the season. That total is more than any Husky had in 60 games last season (Zac Susi, 30 walks).

The UConn record for walks in a season is George Springer with 60 in 2010. Assuming UConn gets into the NCAA Tournament, I would think Fedko is going to make a pretty good run at this record.

I've always thought that a player is doing well in the walk column if he is generating 1 walk in every 10 at bats (the at bat total does not include those walks). Thus a player with 10 or more walks in 100 at bats is doing fine. Christian Fedko has 32 walks in 105 at bats, which is absolutely astounding.
