UConn @ Coastal Carolina - Tuesday 3/13 @4p

[Baseballguy]

Love it. Must be feast day. Although I think it might have to do with the lineup. Like having Phillips in there.

He’s a difference maker. He extends the lineup better than any other option off the bench.

Top 3rd, Woodworth doubles, then scores on a passed ball. 11-1 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 3rd, Coastal Carolina picks up 3 runs. 11-4 UConn.

Lead off homer in the bottom of the 4th for Coastal Carolina makes it 11-5. 1 out later, Kersten comes out, and Rossomando comes in.

Chris Jones just raised the possibility of a 4 game series at St. John's this weekend to make up the cancelled game at The Citadel. Kersten could get the start in that additional game.

 

[dbmill]

1 walk for Rossomando, but he also gets 2 outs. 11-5 going to the top of the 5th.

Keep pouring it on.

Keep pouring it on.

Need to keep scoring, the wind is blowing straight out, and Coastal Carolina scores a lot of runs.

Love to see Ronnie really have his coming out party this year here....3-4 solid innings to get us to poulin.

 

[dbmill]

Batters got on against Rossomando, but it didn't seem to faze him, and he gets out of the 5th. In previous seasons he may have blown up. I take it as an encouraging sign.

Feldstein just gets a long solo homer to make it 12-5 in the top of the 6th.

 

[dbmill]

Jake Wallace coming in to pitch the bottom of the 6th.

Chris Jones talking about UConn having a 3 game series against Coastal next season.

I forgot to post after Feldstien’s moonshot

Poulin coming in to pitch the 7th!! I figured he would get at least a couple innings this game, but I wasn't betting to start the 7th.

Congrats @Storrs South, and thanks for the video

This is not fun

They have to get the bullpen straightened out. They’ve been atrocious thus far.

 

[uconnbaseball]

That was rough.

12-10 us going to the 8th

Not sure if its the Shrimp Scampi repeating or the last inning... but SOMETHING is giving me agita!

 

[dbmill]

Ugly inning for Poulin. 12-10 going to the top of the 8th.

I don't think anyone is worried about Poulin long term wise as the closer. Today, however....

 

[uconnbaseball]

Offense has scored 1 run in 6 innings.

We may regret that.

Poulin in to start the 8th.

The problem is....The more you have to use these guys out of the pen, the more hit-able they become in a series. I agree Poulin should be fine long-term, but the rest of the pen has not been great. Who can really be trusted to get you to Poulin? The fact that HCJP went to Poulin in the 7th, speaks volumes about his trust in the pen. It's still early but nearly every game has been a Pepto moment for @huskymedic.

That double play works faster than Brioschi!!
