The rest of the story is that after Altavilla’s RBI double in the top of the fifth, the Huskers loaded the bases with nobody out and scored...ZERO. Two strikeouts and a groundout. I’m out of words to describe the futility of this offense.

Northwestern is awful. I’m still not sure how we lost so badly yesterday. Just left work and the bright side is we are winning. We really have to win this game just to stop the potential spiral. Reece is looking pretty good though which is nice.

I’m going to miss all of the ASU series. I’ll be in the mountains of northern VT this next weekend for some R&R. Hoping I am the jinx and the team will go on a tear while I’m gone.

I’ll of course check in at night to see the updates.

It's a W. But sure can't call it afeel good win. Seems like the same issues were alive and well today. Lot of people left on base.
 
For the first time all year I didn't rush home after work to watch the game on my version of tape delay. I flipped on the radio and listened to the last couple of innings and looked at the play by play on live stats. This program is such a let down.
