There’s not a whole lot to glean from UConn baseball’s 7-1 loss in their first game of the 2018 NCAA Baseball Tournament. The Huskies fell apart in the eighth inning that head coach Jim Penders described as “a comedy of errors” when Washington scored five runs to pull away with the game.
“In the eighth inning I’m not sure who was wearing the UConn jerseys but it certainly didn’t look like us,” Penders said. “That’s not the way we play the game. We had four balls go off gloves that inning and the game got away from us.
