UConn baseball came up in the clutch this weekend on the road against Kent State, grinding out a two-games-to-one series win on the back of two clutch innings that turned Friday’s and Saturday’s games from toss-up results into wins.
Zach Bushling stepped up to the plate with two outs to go in the fourth inning of game one and delivered a bases-clearing double that took UConn from down 2-1 to up by two runs in what would end up a 4-3 win. In game two, it was Casey Dana who played the hero, with a three-run home run in extra innings that delivered the 8-6 series win for the Huskies.
