Houston-UNC Regional Championship Game Thread

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Heels leave the potential tying run on second and it is still 2-1 after 2 complete innings of play.

 

[Jarrod Hardy]

Gahagan strikes out and the Heels strand a runner on 2nd

 

[WoadBlue]

Gahagan swung at 3 or maybe 4 balls - a good eye would have meant a walk.

Gahagan swung at 3 or maybe 4 balls - a good eye would have meant a walk.

Tough to lay off that breaking ball w/2 strikes when you don't know where it's going to finish.

 

[Jarrod Hardy]

Solo HR

3-1 Cougars

Can't play with Houston and give them hope.
AUstin needs a shirt leash

 

[WoadBlue]

Bergner drilled for a home run.

3-1 Cougs

Bergner does not have it.

 

[Jarrod Hardy]

That is a big play by Roberts to nail the runner trying to stretch a single to a double.

 

[WoadBlue]

Bergner drilled for a single, but a great throw from right nails him at 2nd.

1 out - D bailing out Bergner's bad pitching.

Bergner drilled for a single, but a great throw from right nails him at 2nd.

1 out - D bailing out Bergner's bad pitching.

He might not be on but the runs in the 2nd all both unearned due to the error

 

[Jarrod Hardy]

The Heels are going to be consistent at the plate here on out to get to where they want. They can't snooze through games.

 

[ohio tarheels]

Need to capitalize on their mistake like they did to us

 

[Jarrod Hardy]

Josh LAdowski lead-off double

Just what we needed after the mistake in LF to begin inning

Runner on 3rd with one out

[WoadBlue]

This is a huge opportunity for Bergner. He has looked like a scared 2nd rate pitcher. But now his counterpart is knocked out. If he can relax, he might get in the groove.

Very good at bat by Martorano, fighting off good pitches, to drive in 6th run.
