[HuskerFan31]

Everitt gives NU a 1-0 lead with a one-out RBI single.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Should have put up a crooked number but didn't because we can't have nice things.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Caron doubles to start the 2nd, advances on a Matthews bunt, and scores on a Steil RBI single to make it 2-0.

 

[HuskerFan31]

A 2-run homer after an E-4 makes it 2-2.

 

[k9_r]

Two run homer ties the game. Why? How? Because leadoff batter grounds one to Matthews, Brice dribbles once, throws late to 1st.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Anderson doubles, advances on a flout, and scores on a Banjoff RBI groundout. Huskers lead 3-2 after 3.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Olson tosses a scoreless 4th, he is at 76 pitches and Ornelas is up in the pen.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Still 3-2 after 4

 

[HuskerFan31]

Chick makes a diving catch to get Olson out of the 5th.

 

[HuskerFan31]

NU goes down in order in the 5th. Ornelas is now on the mound.

 

[k9_r]

Ornelas promptly gives up a double then a walk. Oops.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Ornelas allows a leadoff double and then a walk. NU has the lead runner caught between 2nd and 3rd on a failed bunt but can't record an out.

An RBI single off the glove of Anderson on an 0-2 pitch ties the game.

 

[HuskerFan31]

The next batter doubles to LF on an 0-2 pitch to make it 5-3 BYU, the batter was thrown out going for a triple.

 

[k9_r]

B2B hits on a 0-2 pitch. Ornelas is getting shelled.

 

[HuskerFan31]

B2B hits on a 0-2 hit. Ornelas is getting shelled.

Slightly less sharp than he was on Tuesday (in a game that may not end up counting).

 

[HuskerFan31]

Banjoff singles to start the 6th but is CS on a failed hit and run.

Benson is now in the game with NU trailing 5-3 in the 7th. He promptly walks his first batter.

 

[HuskerFan31]

CJ Hood is now in the game with two on and one out.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Hood allows one to score, but limits the damage as he gets a K to leave the bases loaded.

BYU leads 6-3 at the stretch.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Chick blasts a one-out 2-run homer to cut the lead to 6-5.

 

[k9_r]

All tied. TY Max.

 

[HuskerFan31]

BYU makes a pitching change and their new pitcher hits GA with his first pitch.

Anderson follows with an RBI triple to tie the game!

 

[HuskerFan31]

Banjoff reaches on a two-out HBP to put runners at the corners for Efry.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Tied 6-6 after 7. The left side of BYU's infield has saved some runs this weekend.

 

[k9_r]

Damn nice play by their ss and pick by the 1st baseman.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Bragg is in the game for NU, facing 8-9-1

 

[HuskerFan31]

A leadoff homers makes it 7-6.

 

[k9_r]

Just when you thought you were having a good time...

 

[BrighteRed24]

This team snatches defeat from the jaws of victory

 

[HuskerFan31]

7-6 headed to the bottom of the 8th. BYU heads to the pen again.

 

[HuskerFan31]

NU gets the tying run to 2nd but he's left stranded.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Bragg works a 1-2-3 9th.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Anglim Ks looking for the first out.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Anderson Ks looking for out number two.

 

[HuskerFan31]

Everitt Ks to end the game.
