Saturday, April 27th Nebraska vs. Iowa (Huskers win 12-2 in 7 innings)
- Thread starter RobsterMobster
- Start date
I do hope the weather allows both games to be completed tomorrow. BUT...if it's completely rained out and the result is a 2-0 series win for NU, that works for me.
Like I said the’ll be lucky just to finish yesterday’s game if they start up at 2:00pm.
Iowa wants to get both games in. They said they will start any game up until 9pm.
Update: The continuation of game 2 will begin approximately 3pm and game 3 will be played 45 minutes after the conclusion of game 2.
Wow. Guess they don’t mind getting back super late .. good for Iowa for wanting to play
Both game broadcasts have been de-listed from the B1G10 + TV app. Hope we play, AND hope they're televised.
3:15 official start as they are finish up getting the water off the field. Also, a run rule is in effect for both games today. Agreed by both coaches and the conference officials of course.
Does the big 10 have any standardized rules around these situations? It seems like it just depends on the whims of the teams whether games are called complete after 4.5 innings or resumed the next day. And don’t get me started on decisions when to actually play games. This game should have been called complete yesterday, with a focus on getting the 9 inning Sunday game in today.
Not sure if you’re referring to me, but the ignore button is for the mentally weak
Iowa has their scrubs out there. Hit a home run and finish this game early 🤣🤣
Well, that was the ideal scenario for the resumed game. Sweep time!
It's kind of surprising, it sounds like Iowa was very adamant about playing the resumption despite the fact that their bullpen makes Nebraska's look like the 2015 Kansas City Royals. I'd think they'd take the L and try to salvage game 3 with as many pitchers as they could muster, but they used at least one guy just now who had decent numbers (and he still sucked).
They have a run rule on getaway day. The exception made was to allow the delayed game from Saturday the same luxury was all.
I’m sure their hope was to take advantage of our bullpen and see if they come back. I actually see it the opposite and feel they had nothing to lose by seeing what could happen. They didn’t throw in the best pitchers regardless but you never know in the game of baseball.
With Mayland winning, NU can climb into a three-way tie for first place with Purdue and Illinois with a win in game two today.
