Husker Baseball vs Iowa 4/16
- Thread starter bigboxes
- Start date
Hoeg with the single to drive in a couple of runs. Iowa 6-5. Top 8th, 2 outs, runners at 2nd & 3rd. Good grief.
The big difference in this game is errors. Play sloppy > lose. The Huskers seem to be lacking a power hitter this year. Meyers looks like their best player this year. He pitched well today despite getting in trouble in the 6th.
He is Jake's our best all around player no question.
Talk to Paul once in a while great family.
Hagge with the RBI triple! Huskers retake the lead, 7-6! Bot 8th, 2 outs, runner on 3rd.
GOOOOO BIIGGGGG REDDDDD!
GOOOOO BIIGGGGG REDDDDD!
Altavilla with the RBI single to knock in another run! NU 8-6, Bot 8th, 2 outs, runners on 1st & 2nd.
I was telling my wife that we sure could use another run. She's a Texas fan. Any Texas team before the Huskers. Can't believe I've put up with her for 24 years.
I do miss playing the Horns. My favorite moment in Nebraska baseball history is still the time at The Buck when Dan Johnson screamed at Augie Garrido to get the *&^#%%# off the field.I was telling my wife that we sure could use another run.

I think that Alvarado is our number two player, after Meyers. He's solid both offensively and defensively. In for the save attempt.
GO HUSKERS!
GO HUSKERS!
Well, not a great weekend but that was a good comeback to salvage a game.
With all that hubbub the past two days, we're still only one game back from B10 lead, and still ahead of Iowa in the standings.
Goes to show that Iowa is tougher than we'd like to believe. All three games could have gone either way. They've got more power and Adams is a beast. He won't be back next year for the Hawkeyes. He'll be in the MLB.
The bad thing is that Minnesota lost their series and we had a chance to go into our series with them next week just a half game behind if we had won our series.
Disappointing series, but not a crippler. If NU had gone 1-1-1 at Indiana and 2-1 the past two weekends, most would probably call that a good start to the conference season. Not a blistering start, but pretty good.
I didn't underestimate Iowa. I certainly didn't expect them to be a pushover. But they are a team that we absolutely should win the series against at home.
Hey! Where's all the Hawkeye fans? I need them to like my posts like yesterday! @SWIowahawks, at least you got to watch them lose on BTN.
Yeah but the Huskers need to do that, since they're essentially throwing their Friday night starter on Sundays. Puts a real premium on Sunday wins.
Those who said Iowa wasn't a very good baseball team are clueless.
Only thing that will hurt them is their pitching staff has some injuries and mostly won't have the staff the top half of the league like Nebraska did today.

Or...our pitching isn't that great. Giving up 3 HRs in one game is fking ridiculous.
Maybe so, but Adams leads the league in HRs. Maybe you shouldn't have an aneurysm over things you have no control over.
Or...maybe our pitching coach shouldn't suck, so our pitching staff gives up 3 HRs in one game, and we go 1-2 vs a team that lost series to Northwestern and K-State. I had no impact on losing a series to Iowa. Our coaching staff, however, did.
