No doubter there…

 

[uconnbaseball]

Simmons hits a 400 foot shot just foul, then hits another bomb in fair territory. 2-0 with the top of the lineup coming up.

 

[huskymedic]

Top 3rd, Simmons with a solo homer to lead off the inning. 2-0 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Top 3rd, after the lead off Simmons homer, UConn puts a couple runners on base, Huber with a 1 out sac fly to make it 3-0.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Huber and Stock with two deep fly balls to move Smith from 2nd to 3rd, then from 3rd to home. 3-0 UConn, 2 outs and a runner on 2nd.

I like our focus right now. Defense, baserunning, and pitching have all been good so far.

Top 3rd, after the lead off Simmons homer, UConn puts a couple runners on base, Huber with a 1 out sac fly to make it 3-0.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 3rd, Stefanoni puts down the side in order. Stefanoni with 3 strikeouts so far. 3-0 UConn.

Enzo works so damn fast and efficient to slow him down ump has decided to take away the corner calls…..

 

[dbmill]

Top 4th, UConn offense with a scoreless inning.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 4th, UNF with back to back doubles to lead off the inning, bringing in a run to make it 3-1. Sac fly makes it 3-2 going to the top of the 5th.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Ok, time to regroup and get those runs back. Keep the pressure on them.

 

[dbmill]

Top 5th, Bushling leads off with his second double of the game. UConn strands 2 runners on base. 3-2 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 5th, Stefanoni with a 1-2-3 inning on three ground outs. He is at 79 pitches.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Good response by Enzo to work a very quick inning.

 

[scotty0330]

Chris brown doing all he can to work himself out of a starting job. Can’t get a simple bunt down, three strikeouts against a guy who people hit 400 against last year forget his defense at the moment.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Simmons having a great game. I love him at the #9 slot but he might be promoted soon.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Clutch hitting has not been good. Really needed Brown to get that bunt down.

 

[dbmill]

Chris Brown has struck out three times so far this game. safe to say he is not out of his offensive slump. He is not getting any walks to alleviate the slump either, unlike Smith and Huber. Have to hope his defense continues to pick up, or Padilla might be getting more playing time.

 

[dbmill]

Top 6th, UConn strands runners on 2B and 3B after the 1 out Simmons double.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 6th, Chudoba starts the inning on the mound relieving Stefanoni.

Chudoba with a 1-2-3 inning.

 

[dbmill]

Simmons having a great game. I love him at the #9 slot but he might be promoted soon.

Considering both Simmons and Bushling are lefty hitters, I doubt Penders will move Simmons to the top of the order. I would have him hitting after Ferrer at this point.

 

[dbmill]

Top 7th, Casey Dana with a 2 out double, but that is it for the UConn offense that inning. You just can't depend on 2 out rallies on a consistent basis to produce runs. 3-2 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 7th, UNF with a 2 out rally that works, a double drives in a run to tie the game at 3. Freshman Jack Sullivan coming in to relieve Chudoba with 2 outs and a runner at 2B.

Sullivan gets the final out of the inning on a line out to CF. On to the top of the 8th.

 

[dbmill]

Top 8th, bottom of the UConn order goes down in order.

Bottom 8th, Sullivan starts the inning on the mound.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 8th, Sullivan with an easy and quick 1-2-3 inning.

By the way, UConn pitchers haven't walked anyone yet today. Actually no walks by anyone in this game.
