Men UConn @ Georgetown Hoyas @Capital One Park (Friday 4/19/24 @6p, Saturday 4/20/24 @4p & Sunday 4/21/24 @11:30). Streamed on MuscoVision/Mixlr

[CtBaseball]

Amazed by how good Quinn has been lately.

Equally amazed by how bad Muscovision is.

 

[Bomber36]

That was a huge escape.

 

[CtBaseball]

Imagine how good we could be if Studley gets going. I trust he will at some point.

Top 7th, UConn offense has a scoreless inning after a 2 out infield single by Dalena. 7-4 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 7th, Georgetown leads off the inning with 2 singles. A double play follows, so there are 2 outs with a runner at 3B. Quinn gets a strikeout to end the inning to have a scoreless inning. 7-4 UConn.

Amenities would take some pressure off Quinn and Afthim…

 

[dbmill]

Top 8th, UConn offense has a scoreless inning after a 1 out walk. 7-4 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 8th, with 2 outs, Quinn walks a batter, then gives up a 2 out 2 run homer. Quinn had 2 strikeouts that inning, he has 5 strikeouts in this appearance. 7-6 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Top 9th, UConn offense loads the bases with a leadoff walk by Hyde and 2 hit by pitchers with 1 out. UConn gets no runs this inning, 7-6 UConn.

Afthim takes the the mound to start the bottom of the 9th.

 

[Bomber36]

Could have used a run or two there. Come on Brady!

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 9th, Afthim gives up a leadoff walk. Afthim gets the next 3 batters out. UConn with a 7-6 win, Afthim gets the save, and UConn sweeps the series.

Coming right into form!

He has to.

Looks like Huskies will be alone in first in the league. It will be a dogfight to stay there, but they’ve got the muscle memory if not the overwhelming talent to do so.

 

[HCCForever]

Nice payback for Georgetown sweep a couple years ago.

 

[How Sway?!]

Will say, respect to Georgetown and the rest of the BE for being good this year when we needed it most. Can't imagine having that start of the season and then playing a bunch of sub 100 rpi teams for conference games. Would have eliminated any leeway for an at large.

College baseball community is also paying attention: Big East’s improved depth on display in Villanova win over Creighton:

UConn has its RPI jump up to 38 after this game. Of course that will bounce around as more games conclude.

UConn RPI now at 36 after the sweep.

 

[Rdkid]

The criticism of the league is fair when there is not universally 11.7 for baseball. I hope this guy has the full amount to work with - they’ve earned it working their way from the bottom. And it’s not like Gtown doesn’t have money. Maybe that’s how they’ve risen.

 

[PASTE04038!]

Any sense of how serious Garbo’s injury is?

Jammed his shoulder diving into the wall. He’s pretty sore from what I’ve seen from him. Hopefully it’s nothing to bad.

No room for error after a nice weekend. They finally got some timely hitting all weekend long and have 3 solid wins to show. I think it’s pretty obvious that Shpur Minnick Dalena all starting to contribute and Cooke starting to make an impact, to go along with the backend of the pen taking shape, things are moving up. I think Studley,( some signs of breaking out) base-running and inconsistencies in general are some areas that could lead to some bad losses. They can’t afford any with an At Large in reach again.
