I posted a message earlier in the season about Shpur should be moved out of the leadoff spot until he gets his offense going. So far this season Shpur has an on base percentage of .256. UConn has a number of players who have on base percentages well over .300, so in my mind there are a bunch of guys who could take over the leadoff spot for now.

haven't liked his ab's most of the year. A ton of swing and miss and all his contact is on the ground. Haven't seen a hard hit ball since Puerto Rico
 
The common thread in the last 2 games is minimal mistakes and good pitching. Keep it up Huskies!

I have been waiting for Shpur to move out of the leadoff spot as well. If he starts to produce offensively, he may end up in the leadoff spot again.

Rispoli has been doing well when he gets playing time. The funny thing is that he has pretty much replaced Maddix Dalena in the lineup. Dalena has started the season in a pretty good slump, pretty much the same as last season.
 
Going to be having dinner pretty soon, so that will be a short break for me from doing these inning by inning posts.

Gotchu

Rispoli leads off with a 6 pitch walk, and Minick follows it up with a double down the left field line. Daniels proceeds to smack an RBI single down the right field line. 2-0 UConn in the 1st.

Macarthur "grounds out" after taking a very low 3-1 pitch below the knees for a strike. 1 out, 1 on.

An atrocious throw on an attempted steal leads to Daniels coming all the way home. 3-0 UConn. Padilla pops out, and Biller strikes out. Going to the bottom of the first after a productive inning vs. their best pitcher, who threw 25 pitches.

Top 1st, Rispoli leads off with a walk, Minick follows with a double. Daniels follows with a double to drive in 2 runs with no outs. 2-0 UConn.
 
Bottom 1st:

Cooke gives up a double to the leadoff batter. Fastball is sitting 91-93 (same as the Hurricane pitcher).

A groundout moves the leadoff to third. 1 out.

A soft single through the left side brings in a run. 3-1 UConn.

A first pitch popout gives Cooke his 2nd out.

A nasty slider for strike 3 ends the inning. Let's have some more good at bats.

Dougherty lines out to right for out #1. Good contact.

Next two hitters go down quietly. A little disappointing after a great first inning. Still 3-1 UConn going to the bottom of the 2nd.

Love a first inning crooked number.

One interesting note: this Hugus kid for Miami is supposedly their best pitcher, but has gruesome numbers the past two years as a little used bullpen arm out of Cincinnati.

This isn't an elite Miami team by any stretch, and all these games should be seen as winnable IMO. Then again, we lost to an awful Missouri team so we obviously still need to bring it.
 
Top 3rd, with 1 out, the UConn offense has a scoreless inning leaving 2 runners on base. 3-1 UConn.
 
Solid effort that inning, forcing a lot of high stress pitches. Padilla swung at a couple ball 4's, though, after a good at bat.
 
Bottom 3rd, after giving up singles to the first 2 batters, Cooke gives up a 1 out 3 run homer. 4-3 Miami. Cooke retires the next 2 batters.

Ouch!

Cooke has now given up 5 homers this season so far.
 
Bottom 4th, Cooke gives up a 1 out solo homer, 5-3 Miami.

After a groundout for the 2nd out, Cooke comes out of the game. Suchy takes the mound.

After an infield single, the runner steals 2B. Suchy gets a ground out to end the inning. 5-3 Miami.
