17 Feb 2019 Game 4: Nebraseball at UC-Riverside (NU wins 7-1)

I figured I'd better get the thread started just in case you hadn't noticed either. There was no announcement of the change that I could find so my guess is it was a very last minute decision.
Other than the tweet from 8am that you posted haha. The ones that were pinned on the Husker baseball twitter page for previous games looked identical to this one, so I didn't think it was anything new.

Ha, that was from 8am. Shows how well my "pay attention to detail" is on a Sunday.

According to Hagge via the radio crew, Byron Hood is the designated team barber.

Again, this is why we listen. :) You don't get that kind of information in the box scores.

I don't think we'll see Ledbetter bundled up as Ralphie from "A Christmas Story" like Tezak did last season.

(okay, maybe an exaggeration)

We've been doing an outstanding job of getting the leadoff man on base today. That and a combination of excellent defense behind Gomes allowing him to settle in have been the difference. All around solid game by the Big Red through 7 innings.

Now let's hope I didn't just jinx this game.

Well, that was our lowest offensive production of the season. So disappointing ;)

What a fantastic all-around performance by the team today!

0 errors and 0 walks conceded. Talk about a clean game.

CORRECTION: 1 walk (in the 9th inning).
 
Well I hate to jinx it...
especially with Oregon St games coming up BUT...
Huskers are undefeated in the 'U of N' jersies.

Whatever happens against the Beavers next weekend... happens!
I am optimistic. Hope they play loose and fresh. No fear. They're already expected to lose. So what?!?? No pressure. Just don't let yourselves get beat down. They got 4 tries to be 'King of the World' for a day (maybe more). Just keep scoring those runs!

Huskers!!!
Go Big Red

Thanks for the inning by inning updates...much appreciated!

Nice to see the Huskers score some runs.

I know Oregon State has had great teams the past few years...are they top 10 again? Didn't their coach step down after last season?

Dagnabit! I was occupied until about 2:00 and missed any notice on the game time change. And, naturally, when I open the app to listen to the game, it tells me the score so I can't even wait and listen to the radio archive! Oh, well.

Solid start to the season. Pretty much dominated for 35 of 36 innings. Only not 4-0 because....baseball.

The most impressive thing to me? Late-game scoring. NU scored in 11 of the 12 7th, 8th, and 9th innings. And scored a total of 33 runs! I'm sure Riverside's bullpen, and the damage the Big Red did to it in game one, were factors. It's sure an encouraging sign after the first weekend, though.
