Top 1st, a leadoff single and a walk put two runners on for UConn with no out. Christian Fedko with a one out rbi single to make it 1-0 going to the bottom of the inning as the Huskies strand two runners.

Great move to slide Pat Wink down the lineup. His stats with runners in scoring position must be anemic.

Chris Jones says Justin Willis is available to pitch today.

Bottom 1st, Peterson with a quick 1-2-3 inning. Huskies could really use a quality start from him today just to get a good boost in confidence.

 

[scotty0330]

Not sure there has been a more efficient inning than that this season. More of that please

 

[dbmill]

Top 2nd, UConn bottom of the order goes down 1-2-3. 1-0 Huskies.

Chris Jones putting in his two cents in again about giving Andy Hague a shot at playing shortstop again.

Jones is broadcasting the game from out in center field, instead of being down the right field side of the field as he has the last couple of days. Too many fans were trying to talk to him during the broadcast the last couple of days, you could hear a little of it at times during the half inning breaks.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 2nd, Peterson with a scoreless inning after giving up a one out walk. Also had two strikeouts that inning for a total of 3 on the game so far.

Kept waiting for the dreaded hot mic issue to raise its head ?

Top 3rd, UConn gets a couple runners on, but the inning ends on a double play with no runs coming in. 1-0 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 3rd, Peterson gets 2 more strikeouts on his way to a 1-2-3 inning. Peterson is looking very good so far.

Pat Winkel leadoff solo homer makes it 2-0 UConn in the top of the 4th.

Pat Winkel leadoff solo homer makes it 2-0 UConn in the top of the 4th.

That’s one way to solve any rapid deceleration issues running the bases. ?

Top 5th, Bushling walks, and Kyler Fedko with a two run homer! 4-0 UConn.

 

[huskymedic]

Check that box for K-Fed.

 

[scotty0330]

Ok we can’t ask for any more from top of order...wow

 

[Bomber36]

Been MIA watching hoops, but now that my bracket is busted I can place my full attention back on baseball. Nice to see the boys back in the northeast.

Top 5th, Bushling walks, and Kyler Fedko with a two run homer! 4-0 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 5th, Peterson retires the side in order, aided by a quality defensive play by Bushling.

Games can be a lot more relaxing when you get a starting pitcher to perform like this. Peterson is just what the doctor ordered today.

 

[dbmill]

Top 6th, Kevin Ferrer with a leadoff triple. Brown with a one out rbi single to make it 5-0. UConn hitting this inning, Kyler Fedko with an rbi single, 6-0 UConn with runners on the corners and 1 out.

 

[scotty0330]

Ferrer has some wheels. That was not an obvious triple but his hustle and speed made that happen. Damn

 

[dbmill]

Crawford rbi single makes it 7-0 with one out and runners on the corners, still in the top of the 6th. This train is rolling right now for the moment.
