UConn @ Top 15 ECU (Thur. 4/18 @6:30p, *Sat. 4/20 Double Header> Game 2 starting @ 9a followed by Game 3*)

... or smirk knowingly <sigh>

Kyler has potential, but tough for the lineup to produce runs with sub .200 hitters in the bottom of the lineup.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 6th, 2 out, runner on 3rd, Wurster coming in to pitch.

 

[dbmill]

One pitch and a ground out gets Wurster out of the 6th. 6-4 East Carolina.

 

[dbmill]

UConn goes down 1-2-3 in the 7th.

 

[uconnbaseball]

That was a painful 7th. Had to get something going there.

Kind of the story of the series, we always seem to need to get something going, but don't.

 

[dbmill]

Wurster with a scoreless inning in the 7th.

My hero <3

 

[dbmill]

Huskies strand 2 runners in the 8th. 6-4 ECU.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Winkel swings at a fastball that bounces off the plate. My goodness.

 

[dbmill]

Jake Wallace in to pitch the bottom of the 8th. Hasn't pitched in over a week.

 

[BaseballDog]

It is obstruction on Fedko, not interference Chris.

 

[dbmill]

Wallace throws a bunt attempt away, run scores for ECU. No out, runner on 2B. 7-4 for the Pirates.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Easy play at 3rd for Wallace on the bunt and we can't even make that play. Welp, just chalk this up to a bad weekend and move on I suppose. Hopefully it will be a gut check for them and they can rebound.
Everyone have a great Easter.

Had to execute here. As you said, story of the series...

I honestly do not know how we can beat this team outside of an incredible Feole performance, but baseball is weird.

 

[dbmill]

Sac fly brings in another run. 8-4 ECU.

 

[dbmill]

Solo homer for ECU, 9-4 is the score now.

Kyler has potential, but tough for the lineup to produce runs with sub .200 hitters in the bottom of the lineup.

I will take Kyler over the pain of watching Aaron Hill bat about .200 over four years. Kyler should be better as he progresses.

ECU goes out west and gets swept by #1 UCLA (close games). They clearly weren’t going to have a let down weekend this weekend. Our games in Greenville were close until this Wallace inning (and arguably winnable if we had any semblance of an offense after Friday).

His brother Christian took a great leap forward this season, hopefully Kyler will do the same his sophomore season.

Obviously we will sweep UCLA & other teams in the Los Angeles regional to complete the Circle of Suck

 

[BaseballDog]

Speak of Kyler...

 

[dbmill]

Kyler Fedko solo homer in the 9th. Nice to see, no matter the score. 2 hits for Kyler today, so hopefully it is the start of something better.

Disaster

Wrong inning Kyler!!!!
