Here's the thing... MSU has PA announcements to return foul balls, however, their foul balls are sponsored by Auto Owners Insurance.

Must not be a very lucrative sponsorship deal.
 
Huskers draw first blood on a leadoff Hagge walk, Schreiber double and mishandled ball in LF. Hagge scores, Schreiber to 3rd.

1-0 Huskers, 0 out T1
 
Another double and a walk are stranded to end T1.

2-0 Huskers, M1.
 
MSU produces a 2-out run, scores on a play similar to NU's first run: fielding blunder in LF.

2-1 Huskers, 2 out B1
 
Wild pitch after a failed double play opportunity that would have ended the inning ties the game.

Deuces wild...
2-2, 2 out B2
 
Matt Warren warming in the bullpen as Matt Waldron concedes another leadoff single in B4.

SIlva intended to throw Warren a couple innings today regardless, was just a matter of when.
 
Leadoff single moves around to 3rd on two groundouts, but is stranded there on another ground out.

3-2 Huskers, E4
 
Leadoff runner gets on via E5 in the form of Zac Luckey, who ends up at 2nd on the throwing error.
Hagge moves Luckey to 3rd on a sac fly to CF.
Schreiber puts runners on the corners with an IBB.
Wilkening P3 with Schreiber running on the pitch results in a double play, Luckey is stranded at 3rd.

3-2 Huskers, M5

Mother of god, another wild pitch scores another.
