Fantastic...

 

[dbmill]

Nucerino comes out of the game with an injury, Chiovitti takes his place in RF.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Can we please score some runs vs truly awful pitching next inning????

First things first. At this point I would settle for a couple of outs to get out of this inning. Can't get runs until you get the other side out.

Barf

 

[dbmill]

Screw up between Toppa and Prato on a fly ball allows two more Tulane runs. 4-1 Green Wave. Sounds like Toppa with the misplay there.

This really sucks man

 

[HawkHusky]

Wow.

 

[dbmill]

4th Inning finally over with a 4-1 Tulane lead. UConn offense needs to go to work.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Another lead-off hit. Let’s have an inning here please

 

[dbmill]

Top 5th, Pat Winkel two out bases loaded single brings in 3 runs (!?) to tie the game. Winkel's bat has really come alive of late. Of course, it helps that he has recovered from his injuries and is able to play again.

If Lucas gets himself sorted out, he may be the shortstop next season if Prato goes pro. Still, got to hope someone is able to take over at 3B next season in place of Moriarty.

Let’s not forget about Andy Hague, who is RS this year. From what I’ve heard, had he been healthy he would have been given a shot at 3B this season.

 

[uconnbaseball]

late but THANK GOODNESS

Bottom 5th, Feole strands two runners for a shutdown inning. Tied at 4. Feole at 92 pitches.

 

[uconnbaseball]

I would take Mase out here. We may need him Wednesday.

I hear you but every game now is important

Given his pitch count, Feole will probably go one more inning tonight. I'm thinking Feole will pitch the second game of the AAC tourney, whether it is Wednesday or Thursday.

 

[dbmill]

Top 6th, three straight strikeouts for Husky batters.

 

[dbmill]

Feole starts the bottom of the 6th.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Horrific series there by the offense.

 

[gtcam]

Boy this offense has had me baffled all season
I understand you get this from young guys but the season is near an end and they aren't that young anymore

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 6th, Feole has given up his first two walks of the game in this inning. 1 out, but I have to think Feole is tiring.

Honestly we are not that young either...and talent is there. There are probably a variety of reasons why we cannot score.

 

[dbmill]

Feole strands two runners on base in the 6th. Tied at 4.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Nice outing by Feole on the road vs a quality offense. His defense let him down.

No question. If Toppa catches that fly ball, Tulane would have 2 runs instead of 4.

 

[Pudge]

You’re counting on quality hitting by the Frosh Kyler Fedko & Pat Winkel. The plateau or deflation by Moriarty then Chris Winkel is disappointing. Langer + Brodnansky + Chiovitti didn’t provide much; whereas past years ... we really have brought in top hitting from California or else wise.

Clutch hitting really never arrived.

 

[HawkHusky]

Great at-bats by Toppa today.

Three hits for him today.

Top 7th, bases loaded, one out, and Pat Winkel up. Pitching change.
