Bottom 5th, West strikes out the 1st 2 batters, a runner reaches base on an error by Daniels. West has a scoreless inning. 8-3 UConn. West has thrown 97 pitches so far, so he may be coming out of the game soon.

 

[BlueWolf25]

Lane gets a 1 out single, a 2 out single by Rispoli puts runners on the corners. Shpur drives in a run with a single, 8-3 UConn.

Obviously the entire offense has started picking it up, but I’m really impressed by what Lane’s been doing at the plate

UConn offense in general has been doing very well with stolen bases of late.

Great outing from West today! Everything except the defense has been on point this game.

[Steve UConn72]

Hope West can give us a strong start and limit free 90s. Speaking of which, do we know the extent of Suchy’s injury?

Good luck on the Suchy question. I've asked three times on three different threads, and either no one knows or no one felt like answering.

 

[Steve UConn72]

Can't say for certain, but I believe Chris Jones said on game broadcasts shortly after the injury that Suchy might be out for the season.

Thanks for that update. I guess it took CtBaseball to ask.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 7th, with 2 outs Abbadessa loads the bases after a hit by pitch, a single, and a walk. A fly out ends the inning with no runs coming in. 11-3 UConn.

 

[Steve UConn72]

Just three hits (and one earned run) for St. Johns so far. They had five or six hitters over .300 in the lineup, so Husky pitching has been strong.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Padilla hits a 3 run bomb vs the Johnnies closer! 14-3 UConn.

This lineup is deep, man.

 

[dbmill]

Top 8th, a leadoff walk by Dougherty followed by Biller getting hit by a pitch. On a fly out for the 1st out, both runners move up a base into scoring position. Padilla follows with a 1 out 3 run homer. 14-3 UConn.

It is possible that if UConn has a 10 run lead after the bottom of this inning, the mercy rule may be in effect for travel days in the Big East conference. It has been in the past.

Bottom 8th, Finn takes the mound.

 

[uconnbaseball]

That'll do it. Really good pitching today on top of the dominant offense.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 8th, Finn has a 1-2-3 inning with 2 strikeouts, 14-3, UConn wins with the mercy rule, they sweep the series.
