Big East: Louisville Tacks on a Run

By Grant Tunkel - May 25, 2007

Louisville reliever Skylar Meade set down Rutgers in order to start the 6th, and then the Cardinals' bats went to work.

Chris Dominguez led off the bottom of the 6th with a single, then stole second uncontested. Pete Rodriguez bunted him to third, and Derrick Alfonso drove him home on a suicide squeeze. Pitcher Jon McCue air-mailed the throw to first, sending Alfonso to the second and chasing McCue from the game for reliever Jason Downey. Shortstop Chris Cates, the smallest player on the field at 5-3, bunted Alfonso to third, but he was stranded there.

7-5 Louisville, end of 6.
