Mason Feole is off to a good start. Allows a two out infield single, but otherwise has a pretty easy time of retiring the Memphis side in the top of the 1st inning.

B2: a hit-and-run with Toppa and Winkel puts runners on the corners for Lambrecht with one down. 0-0 tie between the Huskies and Tigers

Lambrecht gets it done with a ground ball. He beats out the double play and it’s 1-0 UConn

 

[uconnbaseball]

UConn takes a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the 2nd. Heading to the 3rd.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Memphis channeling their inner UConn with some of these baserunning mistakes.

 

[dbmill]

Feole through 3 innings. No runs, 3 hits, 3 strikeouts, no walks, 37 pitches. He has his control and is doing well.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Feldstein just missed a 2 run dinger. Still 1-0 UConn heading to the 4th.

 

[uconnbaseball]

We fail to take advantage of two leadoff hits in the bottom of the 4th. Extremely frustrating.

Still 1-0

 

[uconnbaseball]

We're hitting, but a combination of a lack of clutch hitting and tremendous defense by Memphis is keeping the tigers in the game. 1-0 UConn going to the 6th.

End 5: Carlos Williams makes one of the best catches of the season to rob Feldstein of extra bases. #UConn 1, Memphis 0

 

[uconnbaseball]

Lambrecht with an RBI triple!!! Prato, who has heated up significantly, is the one who touched home plate. 2-0 UConn going to the 7th.

Freshman/Underclassmen are really coming through this year. Exciting times ahead.

Mason is Through Seven! Another 1-2-3 inning for the LHP. Seven-straight retired for the freshman! #UConn 2, Memphis 0

Shawn McGrath‏ @ShawnMMcGrath now
E7: Mason Feole is back out for the eighth (88 pitches). Moriarty is at second, replacing Lambrecht with a 2-0 lead

 

[huskymedic]

Feole through 8... no runs - 4 hits - no walks - 5 strikeouts. 15 of the last 16 retired.

 

[4in16]

Feels is cruising, I'd give him a shot at the complete game at 99 pitches.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Hmmm...maybe, but Feole is still only a freshman. It'll be curious what Penders decides to do here.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Winkel with a double. Runners on 2nd and 3rd and 2 outs. A clutch hit essentially ends the game.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Freshman/Underclassmen are really coming through this year. Exciting times ahead.

And Moriarity comes through with the 2 RBI single.

M9: three more outs to go. Stefanski will replace Feldstein in right and Radue will replace Feole on the mound. 4-0 UConn

 

[uconnbaseball]

Radue strikes out the first batter he sees and gets an easy grounder to short on the first pitch to the 2nd batter. Nice start.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Back to back singles with 2 outs...never easy with this team.

But Radue gets the next batter to fly out harmlessly. Awesome series, a great week next week and we are probably going to be ranked.

Ball game over! B2B weekend sweeps...
