UConn vs. Memphis @ J.O.C. (Fri. 4/1/19 @ 3p, Sat 4/13 @ 1p & Sun. 4/14 @ *11:00am*)

[dbmill]

Bottom 4th, Toppa lead off single, first UConn base runner since the 1st inning.

Never mind, Fedko hits into a double play.

 

[uconnbaseball]

This team needs a "spark" play in the worst way.

 

[dbmill]

Top 5th, Kersten strands two runners on base. 5-0 Memphis.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 5th, UConn offense continues to slumber. Kersten starts the top of the 6th at 71 pitches.

Gozzo in for Pat Winkel...

 

[dbmill]

Randy Polonia warming up in the bullpen.

 

[dbmill]

Top 6th, scoreless inning for Kersten.

 

[navery12]

2 runs back here and I'll have some confidence

 

[dbmill]

Toppa is the only guy doing anything on offense today with 3 hits, including a two out single in the 6th.

 

[dbmill]

Kersten stays on to start the 7th. He's at 84 pitches.

 

[dbmill]

After a lead off single in the 7th, that is it for Kersten. Randy Polonia comes into the game.

 

[dbmill]

Polonia is greeted into the game with a 2 run homer to make it 7-0, which brings Chase Gardner into the game.

 

[dbmill]

Funny, Crispino has referred to Kersten several times today as Wurster.

Polonia is greeted into the game with a 2 run homer to make it 7-0, which brings Chase Gardner into the game.

Goodman owns the staff...

 

[dbmill]

Wish this game had happened tomorrow, I have a birthday lunch to go to, and this game was worth missing.

Gozzo hits a solo homer to lead off the 7th, and I wasn't even outside with the dog.

 

[dbmill]

Gardner stays on to start the 8th.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Just a horrific effort. Flush it and move on.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Maybe we see Sanderson in the 9th?

 

[dbmill]

Gardner leaves the game with the bases loaded and no out in the 8th, Karl Johnson comes in.

 

[dbmill]

Maybe we see Sanderson in the 9th?

Or maybe Angus Mayock.

 

[dbmill]

Johnson gets out the inning with no runs scoring, first with an interference call (baserunner ran into Prato trying to field a ball), and then a double play. Good job!

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Just a horrific effort. Flush it and move on.

Feel like this is a recurring theme lately...

 

[dbmill]

Maybe we see Sanderson in the 9th?

Or maybe Angus Mayock.

Or Avery Santos, who is in to pitch the 9th.

Win Sunday and this will be a very nice week. Last week was abysmal, however.

 

[dbmill]

Nice 1-2-3 inning for Santos. Possibly another guy who might be on the look out for more work out of the pen?

 

[huskymedic]

LOL - WAVZ1300 stream just decided to switch to Jeremy Schapp @ top of 9.

 

[dbmill]

Is the game over or did WAVz 1300 just decide to switch to Jeremy Schapp?

It's still on, bottom of the 9th. WPOP stream still has it.

I started to type before you posted the update... can’t blame ‘em.

Easy question to answer, the type I like.

 

[dbmill]

Now it's over, and it didn't get any better.
