Surprised they didn't use Phillips as a PH in K-Fed's spot in the 8th. You have Chiovitti and Brodnansky to play RF. Phillips is usually clutch in those spots. We needed a crooked number in the 8th.
 
Mason is currently stretching and throwing like he will be pitching at some point in the coastal game.

Severe lack of hitting by Moriarty is getting Lucas more looks. When the bat goes south and the player isn't doing the job, Penders has always looked at other alternatives.
 
Kenny Haus in the preseason interviews sounded fairly similar to Jeff Kersten. Hope he can come up with similar results on the mound.

Bottom 1st, bases loaded two out single drives in two runs for Coastal. Haus is struggling, loaded the bases with 2 walks and a hit by pitch. 2-0 after 1 inning. Haus threw 29 pitches that inning.
 
Kyler Fedko follows the homer up with a solid single. I believe he had a hit in the first game, so maybe he is getting out of his season starting slump.

Coastal gets a run off a bases loaded sac fly. Toppa puts UConn up by 1 run in the 3rd with a 2 run homer. 4-3 UConn. Slugfest brewing?

Coastal ties it up at 4 in the 3rd, and they are still at bat. Kenny Haus doesn't have long for this game tonight.
 
Bats quiet in the top of the 4th.

This could be a winnable game with Feole - I wonder if he and Wallace will each give us an inning or two today and tomorrow?

Two walks and a bunt single load the bases up with no one out. Walks are massacring this team today.

CC strikes out looking for out #1.

2 run single makes it 6-4 Coastal. Pitching depth is a major concern for me in postseason play.

Chris Jones complaining quite a bit about ball strike calls this inning.

UConn has a lot of inexperienced young pitchers on the staff, and it is being magnified by the Feole injury that has prevented him from pitching so far, and by Dunlop imploding in his first two starts. Get Feole and Kersten going back to back on the weekends for 6+ innings apiece, and that will help out quite a bit. It would also give time for the rest of the pitching staff to get their feet under them.

4 runs for Coastal off of Wang this inning so far. 8-4 Coastal lead at the end of 4.

Wang actually pitched very well. He got a ground ball to short that could have been a double play if prato was shaded a hair over.

Fedko rbi single in the 5th makes it 8-5 for Coastal. UConn still up.
 
Coastal having fielding problems now in the top of the 5th, and UConn picks up another run on a throwing error off a Chris Winkel bunt. 8-6, with a Coastal pitching change.

Kersten is the only starting pitcher who has gone 5 innings this season, and that puts a lot of work on the young relievers. That will change once Feole gets some games under his belt.
 
Didn’t they need two touchdowns last year to beat them early in year??
