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

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

Chris Jones talking about UConn having a 3 game series against Coastal next season.
 
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.
 
They have to get the bullpen straightened out. They’ve been atrocious thus far.

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

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.

Another reason for Poulin coming in so early is that he hasn't pitched for a week, and UConn doesn't have another game until Friday. I expected multiple innings from him today, but not him being so ineffective.

Dandeneau is finally coming in after two more walks.
 
Dandeneau gets a strikeout to end the inning. Rossomando and Wallace did fine out of the pen today, getting out of self made trouble, which I'm taking as a good sign from both of them. So not a bad day for the pen, aside from the total flameout for Poulin today. Of course, we still have to see Dandeneau in the 9th.

UConn goes down in order in the top of the 9th. I would be very surprised if Dandeneau doesn't start the 9th.
 
Trevor Holmes warming up in the pen. Susi is now catching, Moriarty at 3B.
