Double by Tiberi into right-center and Hairston scores from third. Cards have scored two runs after two outs in the 4th.
Rosenbaum hits a single to score Tiberi from second. Last four Cards batters just hit for the cycle. @UofLBaseball
UofL Baseball hit for a cycle in four batters:
Brendan McKay homer
Devin Hairston triple
Blake Tiberi double
Danny Rosenbaum single
Brendan McKay homer
Devin Hairston triple
Blake Tiberi double
Danny Rosenbaum single
I'll tell you what changed. The Cards hitters started jumping on pitches early in the count instead of letting the pitcher get ahead in the count. On the homer by McKay, it was a 3-0 count where he can sit on a fastball on the inner half of the plate. You like hitters to be patient but if the pitcher is getting ahead a lot of times the best pitch you'll see is the first or second pitch of the At Bat.
Louisville’s Drew Harrington vs. UCSB Austin Bush- 2 of the most physically imposing baseball players in the country. Wood-chopping contest?
Harrington strikes out UCSB slugger Austin Bush, stranding a runner at 2B. UofL Baseball heads to the 5th up 3-0.
We have the benefit of replay. That looked safe from the field. UCSB player blocked the bag with his foot, Corey slid into it.
Runners on second and third with 1 out for UCSB in the bottom of the 5th. No action in Louisville’s bullpen yet.
Harrington with two HUGE strikeouts to strand runners on 2nd and 3rd in the 5th.
NINE (9) strikeouts in 5 innings.

Louisville strands a pair of runners in the 6th. @UofLBaseball leads 3-0 heading into the bottom of the 6th.
Harrington strikes out Bush again. Louisville heads into the 7th.
Harrington has been amazing.

Harrington ... dayum boy. You go.
For the ACC pitcher of the year, he's kinda the forgotten guy in our rotation. With Funk's early season struggles and returning to school after being a first rounder; with McKay being the two-way player of the year, and raves about his mound presence; even with McClure's mid-week mastery and best record in college baseball ... Harrington doesn't get as much mention.
But Harrington is (and has been) fantastic, all season, minus one inning in the ACC tourney.

60 #ACC players were taken in the 2016 MLB Draft. The entire league can only offer 175.5 scholarships because of the NCAA's silly 11.7 rule.
Post-season UofL Baseball record and career high 11 strikeouts Drew Harrington. Cardinals are 7 outs away from forcing Game 3.
TWELVE (12) strikeouts in 89 pitches for UofL Baseball’s LHP Drew Harrington.
Braves got a S-T-E-A-L in Harrington.

Good to see McKay hitting the ball again, after yesterday. It sure would be nice for Corey to bust his slump too. We need everyone in top form if we want to achieve what we really want.
Louisville's 100 mph flame-thrower Zack Burdi strolls to the bullpen by himself, top of the 8th inning.
UofL Baseball leads 3-0.

Harrington back out there to start the 8th. Cardinals are up 3-0 and 6 outs away from forcing a Game 3. #LouisvilleSuper
Standing ovation for Drew Harrington as he exits with 12 strikeouts and UofL Baseball leading 3-0 in the 8th.
Love the Louisville tradition of the departing pitcher handing off the ball to the reliever. Great show of team unity.
