Bottom 7th, the UConn offense goes down in order. 13-11 Rutgers.

 

[dbmill]

Top 8th, Finn retires the side in order, 13-11 Rutgers.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 8th, Lane leads off the inning pinch hitting for Garbowski. The UConn offense goes down in order. 13-11 Rutgers.

 

[dbmill]

Top 9th, Afthim comes in to pitch, Lane takes over at catcher.

 

[dbmill]

Top 9th, Afthim has a 1-2-3 inning. 13-11 Rutgers.

 

[uconnbaseball]

First two guys reach. No outs. Rutgers pitcher has a ~5 era.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 9th, a leadoff walk by Daniels, Minick follows with a no out single. MacArthur pinch hits for Belisario, but the UConn offense has a scoreless inning. Rutgers wins 13-11. This ends the UConn 13 game winning streak, of course all winning streaks have to end at some point.

 

[buddy]

Very disappointing.

 

[Viet Vet]

Rutgers?

 

[Bomber36]

Maximum bummer. But as @dbmill said, all streaks come to an end.

 

[Scoe]

This pitching is unacceptable.

 

[HCCForever]

Very disappointing especially since the bats were alive at the start of the game but then nothing. One bad inning did them in.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Have to win the next 4.

 

[Bomber36]

This pitching is unacceptable.

It has been very disappointing thus far.

 

[CTFanDan]

Maximum bummer. But as @dbmill said, all streaks come to an end.

Yeah, but what makes this stink was it was UConn's last chance to get a win against a power 4 conference regardless who it was.

 

[buddy]

Rutgers?

That is what makes it even more painful.

 

[Viet Vet]

That is what makes it even more painful.

Sure to impress the B1G.

 

[Bomber36]

Yeah, but what makes this stink was it was UConn's last chance to get a win against a power 4 conference regardless who it was.

But if we take care of business, we are going to get in. I see us winning the BET this year. That won’t change how sketchy the pitching has been though.

 

[HookCfan]

Positives. Caruso looked good even if he wasn’t feeling well. Good to get Afthim work. Peters looked good in small doses. Finn threw well.

Tomorrow could be challenging to piece it together. Got to get ready for Friday.

 

[businesslawyer]

I’d say it was a god awful loss, but the real question isn’t how they lost. The question is how in the world with our pitching we won 13 straight.

141 runs in the 13 game winning streak. That's how they did it.

 

[PASTE04038!]

he's been fantastic this year but that error by Rispoli in the 2nd was huge. Allowed 3 unearned runs to score and gave Rutgers hope.

Yeah, fielding was a bit of a problem yesterday.

 

[hardcorehusky]

Peters is showing progress. Bad outing from Shaw but I would rather see that in a midweek game than a Big East game, a BET game or even an NCAA game. I was actually more perturbed by the hitting after going down 13 -9. We got away from what got us here over the last 13 games and 3 innings!
