Brown perfect in 5th. 0-0 to 6th in less than an hour.

Very confused by two of those strikes on Whalen. 

HP ump has been solid.. but I don't understand those at all. 

[Aaron 4,577]

Bottom 6. Still 0's across the board.

[Brass Cannon 25,531]

Gonna be a heart breaker for whichever team loses. Hopefully Rutgers 

[Aaron 4,577]

Not sure I have ever seen that. McCade Brown gets another strikeout on a chase dropped third strike. Batter took off for first as you normally would on a dropped strike 3 and tripped over the ball and fell down running out the box:). Sums up the offense for both teams today.

[Aaron 4,577]

Brown strikes out the side again and again the batter stumbles a bit swinging to end the inning (I have seen that happen) which again sums up the day for the offense.

0-0 to 7th. 

[Aaron 4,577]

Brown at 72 pitches. Wereski at 67 heading into this inning so this could go on a while.

[Aaron 4,577]

Breaking we have a hit: It's Paul Toetz who walked for only other base runner of game in 1st.

[Aaron 4,577]

Toetz to third after a Richardson single! Lets score. Still no outs.

[Aaron 4,577]

Richardson Steals 2nd. 2nd and 3rd no outs.

[Aaron 4,577]

Barr walks. Bases load. 0 outs. 

[Aaron 4,577]

This announcer can't seem to pronounce his own pitchers name correctly for Rutgers at times. It's where-reh-ski. I figured out before game before ever hearing it but somehow this announcer struggling with it. Makes sense when you think you have a beautiful stadium over putting field turf in:).

[Aaron 4,577]

A popout to center to shallow to score a run for first out:(. Bases still loaded one out for Hopkins.

[Aaron 4,577]

Hopkins pops out and we are going to blow this chance. 2 outs and still no one in.

[Brass Cannon 25,531]

Inexcusable

[Aaron 4,577]

Colopy had a great at bat fouling off many pitches before the pop out. Very unfortunate. The Hopkins at bat was ridiculous with a first pitch pop out. Fougerousse has an OK at bat before striking out.

Scarlet Knights have all the momentum now and I have a bad feeling Brown is going to blow up here. Good news is I don't think Wereski can last much longer if we can get through this but that was ridiculous that we blew a scoring chance.   

0-0 to Bottom 7.

Man... 0-0. I get being conservative, but unless that kids scouted with a Cannon, I think you risk it. 

I obviously don't have that info though. Sickening inning.

[Aaron 4,577]

And of course Brown gives up a HR. That sequence probably just lost us the game:(.

[Brass Cannon 25,531]

So we took all that time to accomplish nothing except our pitcher cooling off.  Our offense should be ashamed

Kip is late af on everything at the plate right now.

I thought so to, but he probably would of been out looking at throw. I have a bigger problem with Hopkins and what he did next.
