Boldt is going to slump his way out of being s high draft pick---I feel bad for the kid--maybe feeling the pressure of the June draft?

From the sounds of it he could hit .250 and he'll still go in the 1st round. Scouts aren't worried about his average because they know what he is capable of when able to focus on baseball full time all year long. Already has the speed and glove to compete at the highest level. Talked to a scout at the game last Friday for a bit and he said only a major injury would hurt him. Thought it was interesting.

Luensmann in to pitch now to close it up. Leadoff walk, next batter grounds out but the lead runner is out at 2nd while he is safe at 1st. Next batter out but a walk puts runners on 1st and 2nd. The next batter walks to load the bases. Groundout gives Nebraska the win!

Not terribly impressive, especially at the plate, but it's always good to start a road trip with a win.
