Garbowski timing way off.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

A few of our hitters are swinging a bit too bit for situational hitting.

 

[rich1122]

shoulda bunted him over with no outs.. would have been a SAC for the go ahead.

their pitcher also seems to be grooving first pitch strikes. Someone's gotta jump on those.

He has 60 pitches. Should be better

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Padilla is the anti clutch. 100% should have bunted

 

[ATLDYKA]

Too much of a common theme from the entire regular season is playing out tonight. Need to find a way to get that clutch hit

 

[Jimdish255]

That was a strike

 

[FfldCntyFan]

That was a strike

Only when they're pitching

 

[Hamms30]

Have you watched this team? When was the last time we successfully sacrificed?

Rule 76, no excuses. Play like a champion.

 

[CtBaseball]

How is that a ball for us but a strike for them? Killing me

 

[UConnSportsGuy]

I don't think it's questionable, he's clearly calling two different strike zones.

It was clear we were in for a tough night with the ump when he warned us after our 1st inning home run for chirping when it was just our guys celebrating a huge HR. Happens every game in college baseball and we got a warning after that?

But again, that is what you have to expect in a NCAA regional in the ACC/SEC/B12 against the home team. Absolutely no surprise here…this is the norm.

 

[Jimdish255]

When the strike zone shrinks up by that much, it puts our pitchers in a position where they basically have to feed them balls to hit.

 

[AzHusky]

top of the 6th pitching change for UConn

 

[ATLDYKA]

Hate the pitch out. Can't give them balls.

 

[dbmill]

Top 6th, Ellisen gives up a 1 out single followed by a walk. Ellisen comes out of the game, Finnegan takes the mound to face a lefty batter.

Finnegan gives up a walk to load the bases with 1 out, and then gets a strikeout for the 2nd out, and a groundout for the final out to end the inning with no runs coming in. Game tied at 3.

Quick questions for ya:

Did the umpire strike out with the bases loaded in the first?

Did the umpire pop up with the bases loaded in the second?

worry about what you can control.

 

[Jimdish255]

Safe. Had him though. That's basic rundown stuff.

 

[businesslawyer]

Another failure to execute a fundamental play there. Damn. This team isn’t good enough to not take outs when they’re given to you.

 

[Jimdish255]

He's just not doing well with guys on base. Looks totally distracted. And a really slow delivery.

 

[Jimdish255]

Another strike we didn't get

 

[jrazz12]

Umpires trying harder than any other job to be replaced by robots

 

[Hamms30]

BIG OUT

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Huge!!!!

 

[huskymedic]

Nice job Mr. Finnegan

 

[AzHusky]

This ump is bull dung that was a strike out, lucky to get the play at second

 

[uconnbaseball]

3 and 2/3rds scoreless inning by Ellisen and Finnegan…cannot let that go to waste. Nice job pitching and defense.
