Make that 11-0.

BC looks like they are about to win a series at FSU. Perhaps we will take the noles spot in the top 25 if we win this game?

Just spent the last few minutes trying to keep my wife calm with the UConn women's game. It wasn't working, but we're seeing Huskies in Tampa!!

Should be fun. They really earned it this year with basically no bench.

 

[dbmill]

This game here is partly an example of what happens when the bottom of the lineup does some stuff.

 

[firstnline]

Phillips really coming through.

 

[HawkHusky]

Stay hot Thad.

 

[dbmill]

Top 4th, bottom of the order stirring again for UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Stay hot Thad.

Both Phillips and Langer have been on base twice today, including this, the 4th inning.

 

[dbmill]

Jimmy Wang has 33 pitches through 3 innings, so he is having another efficient start.

 

[HawkHusky]

Nice job by Wang and the D after the leadoff double.

 

[firstnline]

Nucerino with a big catch to end the inning. Wang strands runner at third.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 4th, a scoreless inning for Wang.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Wang and the defense both standimg tall. I believe only CJ is available out of the pen today among our big 3, so Wang's performance is clutch.

At this rate we may not need CJ!

 

[huskymedic]

Nucerino with a big catch to end the inning. Wang strands runner at third.

Just that kind of day

 

[uconnbaseball]

Prato with yet another hit. I have to think he will be a very high draft pick next year.

 

[uconnbaseball]

2 on, 2 out for Winkel. Here's another opportunity to get that batting average up.

Popped up to end the inning. Winkel is hitting in the same general range as last season, just a little lower. His power is up a little. However, the big problem for him is his on base percentage is down a bunch from last season. Before the game it was at .269, which is pretty poor in my book. 3 walks on the season will do that to you. To me the most significant offensive thing in baseball for a player is the ability to get on base, so that is no small thing.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 5th, another scoreless inning for Wang. He's at 67 pitches. 8-0 UConn.

 

[huskypantz]

If he continues to pitch well, how long do you keep Wang in the game? 6 innings or 7 tops?

 

[firstnline]

Five scoreless innings for Wang. Chase Gardner likely in for the sixth

 

[huskymedic]

Nice line for Jimmy:

 

[dbmill]

Top 6th, Langer on base for the third time today with his second walk. Nice day for him.
