Willis may have given up a wild pitch that let in a run with the bases loaded to make it 12-6, but overall he is looking pretty good.

Just got back from dinner and watching the men's basketball selection show. UConn has the tying run at the plate in the top of the 8th with 2 out. 12-9 Tech going to the bottom of the 8th.

Jones clearly did not see it

Jones is a one man show with his radio production. He is also on his own island outside the press box somewhere on the first base side. The TV people have a lot of help, not to mention cameras.

UConn is scoring again in the top of the 9th, with 2 runs, 2 outs, and two runners on. 15-11. While the pitching was awful, at least the team scored some runs today. UConn hitters with 16 hits and 5 walks today so far.

Should be an interesting post game interview

Chris Jones was speculating about it being basically an injury update, and like you said, he wasn't aware of the Justin Willis injury that you mentioned.

The guys should be proud that they didn't let the first half of this game get them down. They showed a lot of fortitude today.

Lot's of stuff in this one. Injury update. Reggie Crawford currently has only one pair of contact lenses, he needs more. He lost one of them. He might not play tomorrow as he is having trouble seeing the ball. Austin Peterson has a cartilage problem in his rib cage, he had it one time at Purdue. Penders thinks he might be okay to pitch next week, but will have to see about it. Simmons has a bad bone bruise in his ribs, at least it isn't a break. Justin Willis, something in his left shoulder got displaced covering home plate on the passed ball.

Horrific on the mound, Penders thinks they may have set a UConn hit by pitch record. Peterson was pitching while hurt. Wang had one good inning, then just disappeared. The one pitcher who got praise is freshman Brendan O'Donnell, who did not look afraid today. Penders was happy with the way he competed. Penders thinks he is going to have a bright future with the Huskies.
