That’s a tuff error on our third basemen but gives a hit last night on a routine grounder to Joe
Can’t lose Conf series @ Home. Feeling like it’s gonna be long season, but can’t say I’m surprised so far.
Bottom 3rd
Lead off double for Burckel, groundout, and then another groundout by Padgett brings him home…UCONN leads 6-2
Plus more to the fact it’s a strong baseball conf. You’re not going to get many if any at all weekend sweeps to build your resume. Then you factor in the weekday gms against McNeese, SHSU, Rice etc and piling up the W’s is not easy unless you are an elite team. I’m hoping and wanting the best but sometimes you have to be realistic of situation. #GoCoogs
