Eagles fall to former Big East foe, 3-1

STORRS, Conn. – The Boston College baseball team was edged out by Connecticut, 3-1, at J.O. Christian Field on Wednesday afternoon. The Eagles’ record evened out at 12-12, while the Huskies improved to 15-8 on the season.

UConn put two runs on the board in the bottom of the first on two extra-base hits and a sacrifice fly off of BC’s freshman right-hander Joe Mancini (Fairfield, Conn.). The Eagles answered in the top of the second with two singles and an error that scored junior first baseman Jack Cunningham (South Riding, Va.).

Mancini remained in the game to pitch the second and had a three-up, three-down shutdown inning, but BC would get no closer than one run. The Huskies plated a two-out run in the fourth against junior RHP Matt Gill (Simsbury, Conn.) to double their lead.

UConn righty Colby Dunlop (3-2) and the Huskies’ bullpen combined to put the Eagles down in order in the fifth through seventh innings; benefitting from a double play that erased a Cunningham leadoff single in the fifth.

RHP Jacob Wallace finished off the game with a perfect ninth, including two strikeouts, for his seventh save of the season. Dunlop got the win in five innings with one unearned run, scored on his owned failed pickoff attempt, on six hits and no walks with one strikeout.

Mancini (2-3) took the loss with two runs scored on two hits and no walks with two strikeouts in two innings.
