Bottom 2nd, again Rispoli leads off with a walk. Rispoli is caught trying to steal 2B for the 1st out. Shpur follows with a 1 out infield single. Shpur steals 2B, but is caught trying to steal 3B for the 2nd out. Daniels and Minick have back to back doubles driving in a run, 7-0 UConn.

Biller follows with a double driving in another run, 8-0 UConn.
 
Everyone has reached so far this inning, but two runners get out on the bases. Damn…

We do score on back to back doubles. 7-0

UConn has generally done very well stealing bases this season, just happened to get caught twice this inning, and UConn still has a 8-0 lead in this game.

Before this game, UConn had 120 stolen bases in 150 attempts. So they have been caught 30 times according to the UConn stat page, that is not a bad percentage.

Awesome keep em coming, does a mercy rule apply today.

In Big East conference series during the regular season, generally the mercy rule only applies on the final day of the series which is the travel day for the road team.
 
It will be interesting to see if Pudvar comes out soon in this game, considering he is likely to be the starting pitcher in the Thursday game against Maine. Chris Jones was talking about this.

I think it's stupid if it's not applied to a Dan Hurley imo at least for the first game but it is what it is let's keep it going.
 
Bottom 5th, after a no out walk by Rispoli, the UConn offense has a scoreless inning. 12-1 UConn.
 
It's kind of counterintuitive that there is no mercy rule for a game played as part of a double header in BE men's baseball but in the BE women's softball tournament the mercy rule is in place.

Exactly if it's gonna be applied make it make sense.
 
Crowd looks a bit thin for last day of exams given team's success?

I live in NC or I would be there.

Gotta love the autocorrects where "D....H" gets converted.

The mercy rule does apply to games in the Big East baseball tournament, at least it has in the past.
 
Top 6th, Pudvar walks the leadoff batter, and give up a double to the next batter putting 2 runners in scoring position. A sac fly for the 2nd out brings in a run, 12-2 UConn.

Top 7th, Peters walks the leadoff batter followed by a bunt single. A 1 out single drives in a run, 12-3 UConn.

A 1 out single drives in another run and puts runners on the corners. 12-4 UConn.

Peters leaves 2 runners on base.
