31 March 2019 Game 22 (DH-2): Nebraseball at Minnesota (Minnesota wins 3-2)

[HuskersNC]

Even with a bunch of new faces in the lineup, the strike out numbers are ridiculous. When will the hitting coach be asked to step aside? Oh.

Did they ever hire a hitting coach to replace Bolt?

Congrats to your team, @Lincoln gopher! Aside from Game 2 of the series, some very even baseball.

Maybe we'll meet again on May 26 in Omaha

Crazy endings. That's baseball. Best of luck to you and the Huskers. I imagine I will make it down to see them play 4-5 times this year. I had season tickets the first 7 years at Haymarket.

Found both past ball replays...
Both looked to Roskam's right and low, the 2nd more than the 1st.
On both, the batters were swinging the bat high.
Snow was falling fairly well. Not making excuses.
Just that is what I see from the replays.

No, I believe Erstad has been in charge of that since 2015 (I think some claimed Kirby was doing it, but I'm pretty sure he's just infield defense and 3rd base coach in games?)

As the immortal Denny Matthews wisely points out at every opportunity, when you walk the lead-off batter late in the game, he's going to end up scoring almost every time.
