UConn Baseball: Vinny Siena leads Huskies to a midweek UMass sweep

The junior second basemen continues to impress, going 5-10 with two doubles, a homer, seven RBI, six runs, and two steals in convincing wins over UMass-Amherst, and UMass-Lowell.

As we saw in UConn's loss to Hartford a few weeks back, midweek games against regional opponents can be difficult. Typically, less experienced starters are on the hill, and you're facing teams who are chomping at the bit to go against the best baseball program in New England. This is problematic because losing at home to a team with an RPI like UMass-Amherst (190), or UMass-Lowell (245), can seriously hurt the Huskies (31).
