For the first six innings of the American Athletic Conference Tournament first round matchup between the Cincinnati Bearcats and the UConn Huskies on Tuesday, there was some back-and-forth baseball being played. UC got out to a 1-0 lead early, then UConn went ahead 3-1, the Bearcats pulled even and the Huskies eventually took a one-run lead.
Then the bottom of the seventh came.
Over the course of that inning and the eighth, the Huskies put up eight runs on the board despite only two hits. Walks and errors, as you might imagine, crushed UC’s chances at an upset over the No.
