Big East: Threat Averted

By Grant Tunkel - May 25, 2007

UConn put runners on 2nd and 3rd with 1 away, but Quevedo prevented any runs from scoring thanks to some nifty defensive work. Third baseman Addison Maruszak cleanly fielded a hard grounder to third and fired to first for out number 2. Then 9th place hitter Gordon Stevens swung and missed for strike 3, but the pitch got away from catcher Braulio Pardo. But Pardo got out of his squat quickly, and tossed home to the covering Quevedo, who applied the tag in time to get the out and save the run.

USF went quietly, going down 1-2-3 in its half of the inning.

0-0, end of 2.
