Top 6th, Lane draws a 1 out walk, the UConn offense has a scoreless inning. 6-1 UConn.
 
Bottom 6th, Pudvar hits the leadoff batter. With 1 out the runner steals 2B and advances to 3B on a throwing error by Lane. Pudvar strikes out the next 2 batters. 6-1 UConn. Pudvar now has 8 strikeouts for the game, and has thrown 100 pitches. I'm thinking this might be it for him in this game, Chris Jones thought this as well.

Couldn’t ask for more…
 
Top 7th, the leadoff hitter Minick gets on 2B due to an error, he advances to 3B on a ground out for the 1st out. He is left on base as the next 2 batters get strikeouts. 6-1 UConn.

Frank Spirito comes in to pitch for UConn.
 
Bottom 7th, with 2 outs Spirito hits 2 batters. The runner at 2B advances to 3B on a wild pitch to put runners on the corners. A 2 out double drives in 2 runs, 6-3 UConn.

Spirito comes out of the game, Abbadessa takes the mound.

That was a high risk/reward move by Spirito if he convinced McDonald/Penders for “one more batter”;)

Abbadessa gives up a double that drives in a run, 6-4 UConn.

Abbadessa strikes out the next batter to end the inning. 6-4 UConn.
 
Top 8th, the UConn offense goes down in order with 2 strikeouts, 6-4 UConn.

Afthim comes in to pitch for UConn.
 
Bottom 8th, Afthim picks up 2 strikeouts having a scoreless inning after giving up a 1 out double. 6-4 UConn.
 
Bottom 9th, Belisario takes over in right field.

Afthim gives up a 1 out single and a 2 out single. He then gives up another single that drives in a run that puts runners on the corners. 6-5 UConn.

Afthim then gives up a walk to load the bases. A ground out ends the game. UConn wins 6-5.
 
I bet Penders did not want a 2 inning Friday night save from Afthim. The bats were quiet for most of the night and the momentum changed in the bottom of the 7th. Got get the W and worry about the next game as it happens. Just like a regional!
