  • Connolly Finishes Off Search, Tigers No Runs, Few Hits, Lots of Errors
    Daily Nexus Connolly Finishes off Search, Tigers Senior Solves Gaucho Pitching Puzzle By Jonathan Okanes Staff Writer________ Earlier this season, after Pat Bennett had established himself as a consistent closer for the UCSB baseball team and the starting rotation began to hold its own, UCSB Head Coach A1 Ferrer found himself searching only for some effective middle relief to shore up the final soft spot on his pitching staff. It took a while, but the search may fi­ nally be over. Senior right-hander Greg Connolly emerged as die Gaucho set-up man out of the bullpen this weekend with two superb relief performances, helping Santa Barbara to 6-5 and 11-6 victories over the University of the Pacific Fri­ day and Saturday at Stockton’s Billy Herbert Field. UCSB (24-16-1,6-9) took two of three in the Big West Conference series with the Tigers after losing the first game Thursday. UOP is 15-26 overall, 5-16 against conference opponents. Connolly relieved starter Steve Lane on Friday in the sixth inning with the Gauchos trailing 5-2, and pitched two perfect innings while Santa Barbara staged a comeback. UCSB shortstop Danny Lane crashed a two-run homer, his sixth of the year, to cut the lead to 5-4. Lane then hit a two- run single in the ninth to drive in the game-winning runs, redeeming a costly error he made earlier in the game. Ben­ nett (2-1) relieved Connolly to pick up the victory. Saturday Connolly again threw well in relief after starter HILLARY KAPLOWITZ/Mr N u u Chris Johnson faltered in the fifth inning.
