End 8: #UConn 1, USF 1

Need a quick 1-2-3 from Radue here...

 

[huskymedic]

Sigh...

 

[ATLDYKA]

Walks are a killer, because it generally turns into a stolen base and then becomes like giving up a double.

 

[Baseballguy]

I like the move for P.J. here. His splitter has been dynamite his last few outings. He's the best option in the pen to induce a DP ball.

 

[ATLDYKA]

3 walks in the 9th. Ridiculous.

 

[Baseballguy]

Please. Please. Please.

 

[Baseballguy]

P.J. Poulin!!!!!!!

 

[ATLDYKA]

Gets out of it. Good job.

 

[huskymedic]

Need to take advantage of the mojo here!!!

 

[dbmill]

Poulin gets the double play ball to get out of the bases loaded in the 9th. Poulin has come a long way in a hurry.

 

[huskymedic]

Nice walk-up music for Gnesda?

 

[Baseballguy]

Their best bullpen arm has gone deep. Almost guarantees we don't see him again this series.

 

[huskymedic]

Need to take advantage of the mojo here!!!

So much for that...

End 9: Stefanski walks w/ two outs but nothing more for the Huskies. Headed to Extras in Storrs! #UConn 1, USF 1

 

[dbmill]

Beginning to think that Poulin might have become too good to use as a middle of the week starter. Need to use him in the weekend conference games.

 

[Baseballguy]

I've heard P.J. is finally trusting his stuff, leading to his meteoric rise to one of the best options out of the bullpen.

 

[Baseballguy]

Winkel with a huge hit. Bunt here and things get interesting

 

[Baseballguy]

Let's go. BUNT again.

 

[huskymedic]

Winkel is a huge hit. Bunt here and things get interesting

Done... now one more...

 

[Baseballguy]

Gotta get it down. That's the third time today he missed a bunt.

 

[Baseballguy]

That's huge. Come on Susi.

 

[dbmill]

Bases loaded no one out for UConn in the 10th. Need to win it now.

 

[dbmill]

Susi gets the walk off hit, and gets a big win over USF!

 

[huskymedic]

Woot woot!!!

 

[Baseballguy]

 

[ATLDYKA]

Nice win boys.

Uconn desperately needs this series win to stay in the at large hunt. Good start.

TIME TO GET GREEDY...GO ON OUR OWN 111 GAME STREAK...GO HUSKIES!

Time to get greedy, and win a second game over USF. That is a big thing right there in terms of the RPI and the NCAA tourney. Best thing about the previous game is that UConn didn't have to use John Russell, so he is certainly still available to close out one of the next two games.

 

[Baseballguy]

Let's win the series today. Mcclanahan throws heat so quick bats will be needed in game two
