Top 1st, UConn quickly goes down in order.

Chris Jones is underneath a very loud public address system.

Where is Allejandro’s name? I just see a batting lineup

The words above the graphic and right under your quoted question. That fine print will get ya every time.

Bottom 1st, Long Beach State leads off with a double and then a single, putting runners at the corners with no outs. A stolen base puts 2 runners in scoring position with 1 out, they both score on a 1 out single to make it 2-0 for Long Beach.

Nice camera work! Hoo boy!

Clearly not a PAC12 production. I just thought they were having an earthquake based on the CF camera.

 

[Bomber36]

Only one really hard hit ball in the inning.

 

[dbmill]

Alejandro with 3 strikeouts in the first inning as he leaves a couple runners on base. 2-0 Long Beach going to the top of the 2nd.

Good night all.

 

[Bomber36]

This calls for a t shirt purchase. Which one?

Well, thanks to everyone’s lack of input, I bought both shirts. I have a bit of a t shirt fetish anyway.

Offense is really struggling right now.

Still don't see it. Your eyes must be younger than mine. By a lot.

LOL. Got it. Thanks. I saw the lineup tweet and didn't pay attention to anything above it.

 

[CtBaseball]

Woof

 

[huskymedic]

That could have been much worse…

 

[Bomber36]

Big double play. Now we need some hitters out there.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Lucky to be only down 3. That's not impossible to come back from but with how our bats look...let's just say we might need some help with walks and errors.

 

[huskymedic]

Based on his JUCO numbers before he lost last season to surgery, I'm still hoping that as the season goes on Devon Kirby takes a key role in the bullpen.

Here ya go BL… Kirby in w/ bases loaded - two outs B3.

Nothing doing for Huskies in T4. 3-0 DirtBags

 

[Bomber36]

7 walks in 4 innings…something we had avoided in recent games.

 

[Bomber36]

Seems like this ump will not call what looks like a high strike. Maybe the angle is throwing me off.

 

[huskymedic]

Dodging bullets left and right - but Kirby gets out of the inning w/ no damage. Still 3-0 Dirtbags heading to the 5th.

Is Ricky "Wild Thing" Vaugn on the mound for us?
