[uconnbaseball]

We are better. Lay down the law and play mistake free baseball.

 

[Skiblets]

Sweeps are seemingly easier without double headers. Hope the boys take care of business today to set the tone

 

[Bezzz]

I put this in the "Huskies in Pros" thread last week...anybody know what's up with Patrick Ruotolo? He was lights-out last year in AA as a closer but has disappeared from any SF Giants minor league roster.

 

[uconnbaseball]

I get much more excited for these games after a successful weekday stand...

 

[uconnbaseball]

Hopefully these ESPN broadcasts get this program some more attention across the state.

Best of luck to ECU this weekend at UCLA.

[HawkHusky]

Feole off to another rough start (for him). Memphis leads 1-0.

 

[huskymedic]

Leadoff double down the left field line, followed by a walk.

 

[huskymedic]

Feole gets out of the shakey inning. Chasing a run.

 

[HawkHusky]

Robbed of a hit by pitch that would have put 2 on with no outs. Turns into a double play. Ugh.

 

[HawkHusky]

1-0 Memphis after the 1st. We're hitting their pitcher today tho.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Robbed of a hit by pitch that would have put 2 on with no outs. Turns into a double play. Ugh.

And unfortunately that's why you get 3 hits but nothing to show for it.

 

[uconnbaseball]

We will be fine if Mase settles down.

 

[HawkHusky]

Nice recovery by Feole keeps it 1-0.

 

[HawkHusky]

Another 2 out rally comes up short. 1-0 Memphis after 2.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Can Memphis and Cincy at least play defense like this vs literally anyone else??? Jesus

 

[ATLDYKA]

Would have been nice to see that catch. Camera did move, they apparently just didn't want to move it so you could see it? Oh well.

 

[HawkHusky]

I guess it won't make SC Top 10...

 

[HawkHusky]

Can Memphis and Cincy at least play defense like this vs literally anyone else??? Jesus

It's beginning to feel like basketball season, where opposing bench players kept having career games vs us.

 

[HawkHusky]

Great 3rd by Feole. He's settled nicely.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Yeah this is the Feole we all know and have respect for.

 

[HawkHusky]

Ugh. Another good defensive play by Memphis to end the inning. 1-0 Tigers after 3.

 

[UCONN in OKC]

Now we need some runs....

 

[uconnbaseball]

Just keep shutting them down and hitting the ball hard. If Memphis wants to beat us, they had better play the game of their life.

 

[Guapo]

Just keep shutting them down and hitting the ball hard. If Memphis wants to beat us, they had better play the game of their life.

And thus far they have

 

[ATLDYKA]

Come on, it has to be our day. C Wink with a walk.

 

[HawkHusky]

Big Wink with a VERY nice walk. Gotta give the young man some props.

 

[HawkHusky]

Not so much that steal attempt tho...

 

[HawkHusky]

Ugh. Still 1-0 Memphis after 4.
