Guess this new pitcher is USF’s top reliever arm.

And wow, comes in throwing 96 a couple times. Wonder if they’ll try to ride him for the final 3 innings
 
Bottom 7th, Chudoba starts the inning on the mound for the Huskies with the game tied at 4.
 
Huber and Smith looking a bit impressed by the level of competition. i trust that they can acclimate over time though.
 
Lead off single, followed by a sac bunt moving the runner to second. Freshman Ian Cooke takes the mound for his UConn pitching debut. Cooke gets 2 strikeouts to end the 7th inning tied at 4. Nice debut for Cooke.

Wow, now that was a nice first sequence for Cook. Changeup to get ahead 0-1, a couple of good breaking balls in the dirt as the count got to 1-2, then a good 93mph fastball to get past Cantu’s slowed-down bat for the K. Then goes 0-2 on the next hitter! Let’s see if he can finish

Agree. Composure, stuff, control. Good stuff from Cooke.

Top 8th, Fedko with a 1 out double, Korey Morton pinch runs. Simmons reaches on an infield single to put runners on the corners (3 hits for Simmons tonight). They are stranded, game tied at 4. I would have liked to see Ferrer pinch hit for Donlan that inning.

Agree, was expecting a pinch hitter there. Even Garbowski potentially.
 
Cooke looked sharp. Can’t imagine a true frosh doing much better when being thrown into the fire for a debut. Let’s go scratch across a run or two and get him a deserved W.
 
Bottom 9th, Ian Cooke still on the mound. He has been training as a starter, so he might be in for a while if the game stays tied. Funny thing, Chris Jones said the same thing right after I wrote it.
 
Bottom 9th, Cooke strands a runner at 2B who got there with no one out. Game tied at 4, going to extra innings.
 
Huber with a nice lil dive to get that final out. About time we flashed the leather too!

Looks like we’re taking a page from the men’s team and playing a nailbiter. Hope we do better than they tend to (although getting the last two done was improvement) and that it doesn’t become a similar habit!
