Update:
FINAL
Nebraska 3
Ohio State 0
Tonight was all about Brett Sears. The Huskers' ace, who is already top five in the Big Ten in both ERA and strikeouts, went the distance in a complete-game shutout and moves to 6-0 this season.
Sears' final line: 9 IP, 2 H, 0 BB, 10 K on 115 pitches. He threw 81 pitches for strikes (70.4 percent). He allowed a leadoff single to start the game, then induced an inning-ending double play two batters later to kick start a run where he recorded 13 outs in a row. He then allowed a one-out single in the fifth inning before proceeding to record 14 outs in a row to end the game.
Clockwork.
The Husker offense played small ball in the first inning, plating one run on a single, bunt single, walk and an RBI groundout on a double play. Josh Caron then provided the Huskers a 3-0 lead in the third inning with a one-out, two run single to plate Cole Evans and Cayden Brumbaugh.
Huskers (21-6) take Game 1 in the three-game Big Ten series over the Buckeyes (12-13) and will look to make it a perfect 7-for-7 mark in weekend series this season when Game 2 begins at 12:05 p.m. CT on Saturday at Haymarket Park. The game was originally scheduled to start at 2:02 p.m. but has been moved up due to Saturday's weather forecast.
Saturday’s game can be seen on Nebraska Public Media/B1G+, with Larry Punteney and Jeff Leise on the call, while fans can also listen to Greg Sharpe and Ben McLaughlin call the action on the Huskers Radio Network.
