The stat tracker for the game has Jeff Kersten getting the start for UConn.

Cool down, hydrate and get some food in the body. And relax.

Already played with the dog, and getting ready for dinner in a few minutes.

Pace yourself, we’ve got a long way to go tonight.

Stinks we cannot squeeze Nuc in there somewhere, but Kyler is red hot.

Kersten gets 2 quick outs, then walks and hits a guy.

 

[dbmill]

Top 1st, Kersten gets the first two batters out, then walks and hits a batter. Then he gets a strikeout to end the inning. No score.

 

[uconnbaseball]

88 MPH gets by their stud hitter. Kersten escapes with no damage, although he threw 25 pitches...I would only expect 1 or 2 more innings from him tonight.

Especially with Kersten having thrown 40+ pitches yesterday.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Santa Claus takes the mound for OSU.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Haha yes!!!

 

[navery12]

Not buying this guy is a freshman. Who's dad is this?

 

[uconnbaseball]

Sac fly moves Toppa up to 3rd - 1 out. This pitcher looks hittable.

 

[dbmill]

Woodworth sac fly scores Toppa. 1-0 UConn, bottom of 1st.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Another sac fly gives us the 1-0 lead!!!

 

[navery12]

4 batters, 7 pitches. But the early lead is huge

 

[dbmill]

Especially with Kersten having thrown 40+ pitches yesterday.

Big question is who comes in after Kersten. Probably too early for the three headed monster.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

Do the same thing for eight more innings.

My dogs have kind of shut it down for the summer. Cool, leather couch is all they want.

 

[dbmill]

Top 2nd, Kersten gets a 1-2-3 inning. 1-0 UConn. 3 strikeouts, 39 pitches. One more inning?

 

[Chin Diesel]

Confidence is a helluva aphrodisiac.
2 innings in to game and no reason for UConn not to believe they can't hang with the Pokes.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Two balls misplayed so far by OSU? Rusty, tight?
