It's the first of three matchups tonight between Nebraska (11-6-1) and Creighton (7-7) in the battle of the Cornhusker state. After a few hundred steps and going through the maze that is the lower concourse, I'm here at Charles Schwab Field for some baseball action on this gloomy Tuesday night. Huskers are looking to bounce back after a frustrating series finale loss to Nicholls on Sunday where the bullpen gave up six earned runs in just over seven innings after starter Michael Garza allowed four.
Tonight it will be LHP Jackson Brockett (1-0, 0.84 ERA) vs. RHP Dominic Cancellieri (0-0, 4.91 ERA) on the mound. Big opportunity for Brockett - who's been sensational this season - as another good performance could put his name in the Sunday starter discussion. I like Nebraska's chances in this one, but you never know in a rivalry like this one.
First pitch set for 6:02 p.m. with televised coverage on Nebraska Public Media. Your series preview:
