Friday: Nebraska vs. Michigan State (Huskers lose 6-3)

Game is on NET tonight. If it's like last week, the first half hour won't be shown as they finish up PBS News Hour.
 
Meyers not available tonight. Got stitches after being spiked the other night on a steal attempt at Creighton, can't grip a bat. Still slated to pitch on Sunday.

Bottom 8th

Roskam leads off with a single through the right side. Wilkening doubles to LF and Roskam heads to 3rd! Schlepp walks the bases loaded! Pitching change for MSU. Mojo with an RBI single through the left side. Altavilla Ks. Raburn hits into a 4-6-3 DP (why he is batting the 2 hole I don't know)
 
Not surprised at all we didn't come through there. Just like the Iowa game. Chance after chance after chance and can't come up with the big hit.

Also why you don't bat a .140 batter after a month from his last appearance in the 2 hole. Even Schlepp on the 2 hole would make more sense.

Top 9th

Byron Hood in to pitch. Leadoff walk for MSU. Chad Luensmann now in to pitch. SAC bunt moves the runner to 2nd. Next two batters K to end the frame
 
Bottom 9th

One out walk for Miller and Henwood comes in to pinch run for him. Luis Ks. Roskam Ks.
 
A disappointing loss for sure but nothing worth fretting about. Did we really expect 12 straight wins to end the year? Just win tomorrow and Sunday and we're still in good shape.

I didn't really expect us to sweep 3 straight series either, but this one is disappointing because we had plenty of chances and couldn't come through. Now we gotta win out.

So many runners left on base. That Miller baserunning error in the 2nd really put a damper on what could have been a bigger inning.

The team didn't have to sweep, but winning Friday means a lot less pressure. Now they HAVE to win 5 in a row, or else get a miraculous upset from Northwestern and/or whomever else to win the Big 10. And until it actually happens in the "post-Will Bolt Era", no reason to expect this team to make any noise in the conference tournament :|

True, but tomorrow's game is the one I had thought we would lose. Now we must win it to keep ahead of Maryland.
 
I think the play that irritated me the most was in the 2nd inning. MSU had a guy on 2nd and 3rd and they hit a shallow fly ball to center. Acker came up and just lobbed the ball to 2nd. I really think he had a chance at throwing the guy out at home that was scoring from 2nd. I understand that you dont want the runner to get to 2nd as well, but at some point you have to be aggressive and try getting that huge out and that inning was getting way out of control.
