M9: Colette goes 1-2-3 and now Tulane has to get two runs on John Russell to extend the game. 5-3 Huskies

1-2-3 up for Tulane

 

[huskymedic]

Nothing easy.... solo bomb to #2 batter w/ 1 out. 5-4 UConn.

Scratch that B2B solo shots... tie game.

9 outs alot to ask of Russell.

Extras do not favor UCONN. They need to score quick if we get out of the inning

Headed to Extras. Back-to-back HR's ties it up for the Green Wave in the 9th, 5-5. Yahn, Susi and Feldstein due up in the 10th.

Yahn gets on w/ infield hit and then gets thrown out trying to steal second. Sigh

1-2-3 inning for Colletti.

Mid 10: Dan Rajkowski on to pitch in the 10th. #UConn 5, Tulane 5

That decision to steal may have lost the game for us. How stupid can we be?

Time could become an issue in this game if it gets past the 10th inning. According to Chris Jones, UConn has a 5:40 central time flight out of New Orleans.

I'm going w/ taking Radue out after only one batter for Russell.

I'm going w/ taking Radue out after only one batter for Russell.

I agree. Russell hasn't pitched to many multi inning games, let alone going 3 innings. Leave Radue in for the 7th at least until trouble develops.

Rajkowski gets out of the 10th. Huskies up in the 11th.

Chris Jones estimating that UConn has to leave for the airport in an hour or so.

Christian Colletti seeing a lot of time against his former team this weekend.

Things are getting feisty in New Orleans

First important inning that Holmes has pitched this season, and he comes through nicely. Now the Huskies have to play like they have a plane to catch....

E11: onto the 12th after a 1-2-3 inning from Trevor Holmes. Prato-Stefanski-Yahn due up in the 12th for UConn

 

[Baseballguy]

We need some power so bad. Tulane had a team ERA of 5.28 coming into the series. I think this entire weekend we've score 3 earned runs.

That's the difference between a team that can score with one swing of the bat and the other that needs two or three hits in one inning and still may not score. Wish I could get Krueger highlight to play. Curious how he gets thrown out on a single with 2 outs when he would have been running at the crack of the bat.
