Nate Panzer? He sat out last year and did not make the team out of fall.

Oops, thanks for the correction.

Nucerino RBI and Christian Fedko RBI gives UConn a 2-0 lead.

[uconnbaseball]

Thank goodness. Nucerino is my 2nd favorite player on this team next to Wurster.

 

[huskymedic]

Pitching change for Memphis to start B7

 

[huskymedic]

Freaking 5-4-3 triple play gets Memphis out of trouble.

Gozzo and Winkel on 1st and 2nd and Moriarty hits it to right tonthird.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Should have predicted that one with the way this offense is going.

 

[HawkHusky]

My god.... Only us.

 

[huskymedic]

Should have predicted that one with the way this offense is going.

They sure haven’t had the luck on their side the last few weeks.

 

[huskymedic]

... then Wurster bobbles one back to box from leadoff hitter and fires it down the right field line. Man on third - no outs and Penders goes to Dandeneau.

Buckle up...

 

[ATLDYKA]

And now an easy play and we air mail into right field. Penders going to stretch CJ.

 

[huskymedic]

Penders going to stretch CJ.

Who would you put in w/ Wallace unavailable?

 

[ATLDYKA]

Why couldn't we just leave Wurster in there?

 

[huskymedic]

Dandeneau gets next two batters out - gives up hit to score run and then wild pitch brings in tying run.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Who would you put in w/ Wallace unavailable?

Would have left Wurster in. Use CJ for 9th

 

[huskymedic]

Why couldn't we just leave Wurster in there?

Would have left Wurster in. Use CJ for 9th

Fair point - runner was his own doing.

 

[ATLDYKA]

Fair point - it was his own doing.

Agree, but it wasn't like he was getting hit hard. Now you are going to have to stretch CJ when he could have utilized Wurster longer. That is exactly why I leave him in there because you don't have the depth without Wallace.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Sigh...simply put we have to find a way to turn momentum again.

 

[HawkHusky]

Yes Big Feddy!!!

 

[ATLDYKA]

Clutch hit from Fedko.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Woohoooo!

 

[uconnbaseball]

Going to the 9th, I have to asdume CJ will be out there.

Screw this umpire BTW.

 

[HawkHusky]

Wooooooooooooo!

 

[uconnbaseball]

Nice week for us. I am still very concerned about the offense but our pitching was lights out (except Kersten) against a solid offensive team.

Next week at ECU will show us if we are for real.
