24 May 2019 Game 50: (8) Iowa vs. (5) Nebraseball at Big Ten Tournament (Omaha) NU wins 11-1(8 inn)

Our game is rescheduled for 11:00 CST following the completion of the Ohio State vs. Maryland game which is to start at 10:00. That game was in the bottom of the 8th with OSU up a run so who knows when it will finish.

Nebraska Iowa will play one hour after the Maryland OSU game ends. So hopefully around 11:30 or so.
 
B1 NU vs Judkins

Hagge full-count single to LF
Chick full-count K swinging
Palensky P3
Altavilla full-count bloop single to LC, Hagge moves 1st to 3rd
Acker F7 (I think the wind carried it a bit, questionable that it would have dropped without the wind)

2 stranded

0-0 E1

Judkins has an alright move to 1st, but couldn’t get Hagge on about nine attempts. He’s at about 24 pitches right now.
 
Looked like the home plate umpire warned Iowa’s pitcher about something between innings. Not sure what it was about though.
