Connecticut
We’ve got a toughy this weekend. UConn took 2 of 3 from #5 Louisville this past weekend. They have a guy starting tonight throwing some wicked sinker balls in the 80MPH range. Gonna have to dig deep on this series.

Re: Connecticut
We scored 1 in bottom of 1st. Guess we should have put Ocker in to close it.
We were 1-1 after 3, then "In the big inning" (Gen. 1:1) they scored 4, some off a couple of hits but mostly off of walks & errors. Give Coach credit for leaving in the starter McLarty who gave those up. This early in the season better to let him stay. He had 2 or 3 scoreless innings after the bad 4th. We scored 3 more while giving up 2, so lost 7-4. Take out the bad 4th and we win. Need to work on errors- missing the cutoff man (lead to a run) and another throw dropped by the cutfoff man (lead to a run). Also getting picked off 1st with 2 runners on and 2 outs. (Didn't lead to a run.) All can be addressed by coaches.

Re: Connecticut
This team needs to play a lot better than they have so far to be a contender. Yes they won the first 4 but against bottom dwellers.

Re: Connecticut
Looked more like a contending team today. Win 7-2 against a good team.

Re: Connecticut
Win 7-6 today. Pitching needs to improve. 7 walks and hit batter today made this game closer than it should have been. In their defense was a wet miserable day to pitch

Re: Connecticut
At first I thought we were going to have a slugfest on our hands. Then everyone calmed down. Still, 2 out of 3 over a talented team like that is a good start. Waffle House U and Coastal this week. Two tough ones. Midweek pitching going to need to step up big time this week
