UConn v. Michigan State @ Fluor Field in Greenville S.C. (Fri. 3/15 @ 5p, Sat. 3/16 Dbl Header @ 1p & 5p and Sun. 3/17 @ 11a)

[dbmill]

Both the younger versions of Fedko/Winkel are coming on very nicely of late.

Of course, after writing that Kyler commits an error in right field, putting a runner at 3B.

 

[dbmill]

Sac fly for Michigan State makes it 5-2 UConn in the bottom of the 4th inning, one out with a runner at 1B. So far the run is unearned, that could change.

 

[dbmill]

5-2 UConn after 4 innings. Feole at 84 pitches, maybe he will go one more inning.

 

[HawkHusky]

Solo homer. Brodnansky is fire.

 

[dbmill]

Top 5th, Brodnansky solo homer makes it 6-2 UConn. Something tells me that we will be seeing more of him this series.

 

[huskymedic]

Cole got some pop!

 

[dbmill]

Moriarty follows up with his second hit of the game, a triple. Maybe all you have to do to get him to hit is to take away his 3B job for a few series.

Let's get into their bullpen. Will help to tire out those arms with 4 games in 3 days.

We'll be seeing their bullpen soon. Michigan State pitcher is at 117 pitches after 5 innings.

 

[dbmill]

Feole starts the bottom of the 5th.

 

[dbmill]

Back to back doubles brings in a run for Michigan State with no out. 6-3 UConn. Figure Feole will be coming out pretty soon.

 

[HawkHusky]

Then a single. Runners on the corners. Feole gotta be done.

 

[dbmill]

Runners at the corners, no out, Feole coming out, Avery Santos coming in.

 

[dbmill]

Sac fly makes it 6-4, one out.

 

[dbmill]

Santos loads the bases with 2 out. Santos coming out, he's going to bury himself in this bullpen with performances like this. Dandeneau coming in.

 

[dbmill]

Dandeneau walks in a run. 6-5 UConn.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Our pitching appears to be like our 3 point shooting today.

 

[dbmill]

Dandeneau gets a strikeout to end the inning. 6-5 UConn going to the top of the 6th.

 

[uconnbaseball]

6-5 after 5. Gotta keep scoring with our pitchers unable to throw strikes.

 

[dbmill]

Our pitching appears to be like our 3 point shooting today.

Dandeneau has been very reliable up to now. Santos has not. Feole will certainly see better days.

 

[HawkHusky]

Let's light up their bullpen.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Might just see CJ and Wallace the rest of the way. Their bullpen is a tire fire so I suspect both gamed tomorrow will be shootouts.

 

[HawkHusky]

"Baby Wink" LOL.

 

[dbmill]

Might just see CJ and Wallace the rest of the way. Their bullpen is a tire fire so I suspect both gamed tomorrow will be shootouts.

It will be interesting to see how far Dandeneau goes here, there is a potential for burning him for the rest of the series.

 

[dbmill]

Back to back Fedko walks (preceded by a Pat Winkel walk) brings in a run for UConn to make it 7-5. 1 out, bases loaded, top 6th. Pitching change for the Spartans.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Might just see CJ and Wallace the rest of the way. Their bullpen is a tire fire so I suspect both gamed tomorrow will be shootouts.

I may have a long day tomorrow.

 

[dbmill]

I may have a long day tomorrow.

Truer words were never spoken.

 

[dbmill]

Chris Winkel single brings in one more run to make it 8-5 UConn. Two hits for him today.

 

[dbmill]

Brodnansky grounds into a double play to end the inning. 8-5 UConn lead going to the bottom of the 6th.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Double play ends the inning. A shame we couldn't completely break the game open, but a nice quick bottom half of the frame puts us firmly in control.
