Sat 2 rows behind the left handed hitters batters box. Kyler looks like he isn't squaring the ball up and he goes yard and to the track. His power is better than you think. Brown's shot was as a perfect barrel as you will see. The other homers you knew on the swing. Pat Winkel looks like he is back and CFed had a good walk where he stayed he didn't expand the strike zone on himself and on that next at bat, hit the rope.

Petersen and Haus both averaged about 88 on the heater - Lucas around 83. Peterson and Haus also have good hooks. The Seton Hall starter sat at 91 and a good hook. Their bullpen got lit up so hopefully that is the formula moving forward against them. Get the starters out of there and work on their bullpen.

After having my season tickets cancelled last year, it was my first opportunity to make it out to Elliot For a game. That was a lot of fun. Got to talk to some knowledgeable folks last night so it was a really good 3 hours.

Disappointed in the lack of turnout- hopefully there will be more people out today. This team deserves a good crowd and especially on senior day. I will make my way over once I get my work out of the way.

No CFed in first game...

In the postgame interview last night, Coach Penders indicated Christian Fedko had tweaked something late in the game. I wonder when the last time David Langer played second base, this could be interesting.

Shocked that Langer will play second rather than Hague.

Remember, Hague injured his hand, I think it was during a practice session before the Xavier series. For a while he could not play the field or hit, but he was used for pinch running. Last night he took over at second base after Christian Fedko got hurt. It may be that Hague has been cleared to play the field, but not yet to hit. Or it may be that they are that unimpressed with Hague's bat these days. Which to me is something, after hearing how good he was on the offensive side of the game during fall ball. Things really turned around there. I would expect if UConn has a lead somewhere in the middle innings or later, Hague could very well find himself on the field as a defensive replacement, something that could happen earlier in the game if he has been cleared to hit.

Chris Jones says the last time Langer started at second base was 2017.

Nothing to do whether or not coaches are “unimpressed”. Hague is not cleared to hit with a broken hand.

Top 2nd, Langer with an excellent play on a pop up at second base in very shallow outfield, turns it into a double play. Casparius faces the minimum. 4-0 UConn.

Bottom 2nd, UConn loads the bases, but nothing more comes of it. 5-0 UConn.
 
Top 3rd, Casparius gives up a lead off walk, but then gets 3 strikeouts in a row. 5-0 UConn. Casparius at 41 pitches.
