Big East: Bad Execution Nearly Haunts Huskies

By Grant Tunkel - May 25, 2007

After USF's 9th place hitter led off the 3rd with a single, leadoff hitter Walter Diaz grounded the ball back to the pitcher for what looked like a double play ball. But Huskies SS Dennis Donovan bobbled the ball at second and both runners were safe. Then Ty Taborelli bunted back to the pitcher, and McGinn looked to third - except no one was covering. He then fired late to first to load the bases.

McGinn then recovered and pitched brilliantly, striking out Dexter Butler and getting clean-up hitter Addison Maruszak to ground into an inning-ending 6-4-3 double play and keep the score tied at 0.

0-0, mid 3.
