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

Walk to the 9 hitter comes back to bite us.

Feole just out of sync... three balks in one inning. <sigh>

 

[dbmill]

A third balk. I think Chris Jones said these are the first balks for Feole this season.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Will be interesting to hear what Penders has to say about those postgame.

I think it is still 3-1? Maybe I am wrong.

 

[HawkHusky]

Really need a run here to swing momentum.

 

[dbmill]

Oh, it will be an interesting interview. Since this is happening early, I doubt he will have another speechless moment.

 

[dbmill]

No, you're right, I already corrected it.

 

[navery12]

No, you're right, I already corrected it.

UConn Twitter account has it as 4

Edit: And now they corrected too, carry on

 

[HawkHusky]

Some of these called strikes have been incredibly questionable.

ECU stat tracker has it at 3-1. I think that is what Chris Jones said as well.

Yeah it's 3. They deleted the tweet with 4-1 now

 

[uconnbaseball]

I like Chris Winkel's approach a little more recently. He is still not walking much but he is willing to see more pitches.

 

[dbmill]

Yeah it's 3. They deleted the tweet with 4-1 now

I confused myself with all those balks, I initially thought another run had scored on the last one.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Why is CMo playing over Langer. I know Langers average isn't great either but at least he seems to make contact and hit the ball hard. CMo's defense has been average this year as well.

 

[HawkHusky]

Feels like if ECU scores another run, we won't be able to get back in it.

I'm thinking Langer had some really bad at bats during the last Saturday's Memphis loss that Penders alluded to in the post game interviews. That seems to have settled 3B for Moriarty, at least for now.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 5th, scoreless inning for Feole, he's at 93 pitches. 3-1 ECU.

 

[huskymedic]

Need one this inning...

 

[dbmill]

Need one this inning...

Didn't get it. Agnos with a 1-2-3 inning, he's really on his game now. 97 pitches for Agnos now.

Well that didn’t work. Kid is dealing (Stands 11th nationally in Ks per 9 innings (13.50), 13th in total strikeouts (77))

 

[ATLDYKA]

18 outs, 11 of the k's. We ran away our chances early in this one. Offense non existent again.

And Agnos also spent time with Feole last summer on the national team. He seems to have a little ability.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Feole has no command. Walks the 9 hitter again. Doesn't seem to have the punch out pitch he can rely on.

 

[dbmill]

Feole has no command. Walks the 9 hitter again. Doesn't seem to have the punch out pitch he can rely on.

Feole gets a fly out, then comes out at 106 pitches. Karl Johnson coming in with 1 out in the 6th.

 

[dbmill]

Karl Johnson gets a ground out, then Pat Winkel throws out a base stealer to end the 6th inning. 3-1 ECU.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Not too pissed with the offense. We have owned Agnos in the paat, he was due for payback.

Have to score against their bullpen (and Agnos if he comes out in the 7th).

 

[HawkHusky]

no dice

 

[dbmill]

Agnos is in total command, goes 1-2-3 in the 7th. He's at 105 pitches.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Damn...11 k's.

 

[kris1]

Damn...11 k's.

Career high 12 K's for Agnos
