The three run HR. Earl Weaver smiling in his grave.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Yay!

That starting pitcher did not deserve three earned runs tonight but that’s life! 4-0 UConn

 

[Jimdish255]

Padilla is a real pain.

LET'S GOOOO HOOK C

Would be awesome if I could've actually seen it >_>

Top 8th, S. Quigley starts the inning on the mound, the way he has been pitching that doesn't bother me, even with all the pitches he has thrown so far this game.

 

[dbmill]

Top 8th, S. Quigley gives up a no out solo homer, 4-1 UConn.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Quigley out there to start the 8th interesting. Probably trying to use Quinn and Afthim only as needed

….anddddd a solo shot as I type this

 

[Jimdish255]

Not a great pitch there. Maybe it's time.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Oh well. Let's keep it at one.

 

[huskymedic]

“Three run Jimmy Jack!”

 

[AzHusky]

I was going to ask if it's a mistake to leave Quigley in. After the home run it sounds like 20/20 hind sight

 

[dbmill]

Top 8th, S. Quigley gives up a no out solo homer, 4-1 UConn.

After the solo homer, S. Quigley retires the next 3 batters. 4-1 UConn.

Guessing we will see Afthim next inning, but we'll see what happens.

 

[Jimdish255]

They keep getting closer but we escape up 3.

It was not

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Getting 8 innings of 1 run ball in these regionals is MASSIVE. Let’s get a little more cushion here

 

[uconnbaseball]

Some deep flys that inning but we only give up 1 run. In college baseball, never walking anyone or committing errors is typically…critical.

Great job by Quiggers tonight!

 

[businesslawyer]

If you said Stu could give us the 8th for 1 run I’d have taken it in a heartbeat. They really don’t like having to use Afthim for more than one inning, and my guess is with Quinn not available tonight they didn’t want to use anyone else.

What an effort by each of the three UConn pitchers we’ve used to date. These are two teams we’re playing against who can hit against high level pitchers.

Three more outs to go.

 

[J187Money]

I’m in Mexico so can’t get it at all. :/

 

[Jimdish255]

Strike zone just got wider for their guy.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 8th, the UConn offense goes down in order. 4-1 UConn.

Quinn is unavailable tonight per Penders post game yesterday. 1-0 I think you see afhtim In the 8th. 4-0 they rolled the dice and got away with it.

Top 9th, Quigley starts the inning on the mound.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Other than the strikeouts today, I haven’t hated the offense. We’re hitting the ball hard and these teams are playing good defense. Gonna need to up the offense to a gear we haven’t seen yet this year to play in Omaha though. 1 more inning!

 

[Rdkid]

Not sure a 2 inning save was ever in play with Afthim.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Starting rhe 9th with Quigley uhhhhhjj

 

[Hamms30]

Not crazy about leaving Quigley in against the heart of the order.

Bear down and close it Quigley, get tough

 

[FfldCntyFan]

This seems risky

 

[Rdkid]

Yep - something is up with Afthim

 

[Jimdish255]

Our strike zone has not gotten wider.
