Looks like Friday and Sunday starters have pitches real well through the first two weekends. Saturday guy has struggles but was fairly highly touted out of high school. Not sure competition was stellar but this is gonna be a major step up from UNF I have a feeling.

The FIU Sunday starting pitcher is a lefty, so I would guess that Christian Fedko will be in the starting lineup at least for that game. We'll see how it all goes.

No big surprise to see Huber moving down and Simmons moving up in the lineup.

What a luxury to have Brown hitting 9th

What a luxury to have Brown hitting 9th

Chris Brown has started the season in a big slump. Coach Penders tends to move players up and down in the lineup depending on how well they are hitting.

Top 1st, UConn batters go down in order.

Bottom 1st, with 1 out Peterson walks his second batter of the young season. Strands the runner at 2B, and strikes out 2 in the process. No score.

I’ll take it…

Top 2nd, with 2 outs, UConn gets a run on an infield error. No hits for UConn that inning, and Simmons was picked off 2B for the second out, potentially disrupting a bigger inning scoring wise. FIU with an error and a passed ball on a strikeout that otherwise would have ended the inning with no runs coming in. 1-0 UConn.

 

[dbmill]

Bottom 2nd, Peterson with 2 more strikeouts during a 1-2-3 inning. Peterson now at 4 strikeouts on the game. 1-0 UConn.

Top 3rd, UConn with a scoreless inning. Stock with a 2 out single now has an 18 game hitting streak.

Kid’s just a grinder!

Bottom 3rd, Peterson retires the side in order, picks up another strikeout. He is at 50 pitches on the game.

Chris Jones says Devin Kirby is on this trip and may pitch. Leo Socci is out for the year, he just had Tommy John surgery.
