Leadoff single for SDSU, but the runner gets picked off. Nice work by Sears.
 
Bottom 2nd, Sears gives up a leadoff single, but picks off the runner for the 2nd out as Sears faces the minimum that inning. No score. Sears with 23 pitches so far.
 
Top 3rd, UConn offense with a scoreless inning as Huber is thrown out trying to steal for the final out. No score.

Personally, I'm a fan of trying to steal 2B with 2 outs, as in most cases it would take 2 hits score a runner from 1B.
 
Sears escapes a stressful bottom of the 3rd. His pitch count is elevated now but I would happily take 5 innings of 0 or 1 run ball with our bullpen in stellar shape.

Hit the ball. 0-0 in the 4th now.
 
Top 4th, UConn offense goes down in order with 2 strikeouts. 6 strikeouts on the game so far for UConn batters. No score.

That was easily our worst inning yet. At least in the first 3 innings we put some pressure on them.

Hard to make their terrible defense pay when all of our outs are strikeouts and lazy popups.
 
Bottom 4th, Sears strikes out the side. No score. Sears has 5 strikeouts on the night so far.
 
By my count we've had 3 potential doubles go just foul. Not our night on offense, hope we can get a 2-1 type of win.
 
Morton misses a home run by a foot, and a weird call sees Tamarro called out on a questionable call. This game has been frustrating to say the least.
 
Top 5th, UConn offense with a scoreless inning after a 1 out single by Hyde. No score.

Yeah, sounds like Tammaro was called out running to 1B on interference, but it didn't sound like Chris Jones thought it was the correct call.
 
Top 6th, scoreless inning for the UConn offense. No score. Huber now has 2 walks and a single on the night.
 
Bottom 6th, Sears strikes out the first batter, then comes out of the game. Brady Afthim coming in to pitch. Solid outing for Sears.

Afthim gives up a 2 out double, but the base runner is out trying to steal 3B on an odd play to end the inning. No score.

Top 7th, Padilla with a leadoff solo homer, 1-0 UConn.

With 1 out, Hyde ends up at 2B on a throwing error by the pitcher. Tammaro with a single to put runners on the corners with 1 out. Pitching change, UConn finally into the SDSU bullpen.
 
Top 7th, with 1 out Tammaro steals 2B to put 2 runners in scoring position. SDSU intentionally walks the slumping David Smith to load the bases with 1 out. Huber reaches on a 2 out infield error to bring in a run. 2-0 UConn going to the bottom of the inning.

A few fielding miscues by SDSU that inning.
 
Top 8th, freshman Maddix Dalena pinch hits for Broadhurst and comes up with a leadoff single. Freshman Drew Kron pinch runs for Dalena. A double play takes care of the baserunner. 2-0 UConn going to the bottom of the inning.

Bottom 8th, Zach Fogell coming in to pitch for UConn.
 
Bottom 8th, a lead off infield single followed by a fly out. With 1 out, Fogell coming out, Justin Willis coming in to pitch.

Willis with a strikeout followed by a double to put 2 runners in scoring position with 2 outs. A 3 run homer gives SDSU a 3-2 lead.

Willis is only throwing one pitch. A slider every time. I don't understand why you don't mix in a fastball every now and then. Especially when you are struggling with command of it. Seems to me they are sitting on it.
 
Bottom 8th, SDSU picks up another run after a couple more singles sandwiched around a wild pitch. 4-2 SDSU. Willis coming out. Will Nowak takes the mound for UConn with a runner at 1B and 2 outs.

Nowak gets a strikeout to end the inning. 4-2 SDSU.
 
Top 9th, UConn offense goes down in order. SDSU wins 4-2.

Niko Brini and Ryan Daniels were used as pinch hitters that inning.
