I take it there is no concern about the weather tomorrow that they are just playing the one today?

I guess both teams wanted to keep it a true 3 game series. No concern with rain or snow at game time and I think the wind chill is less tomorrow anyway. Nebraska is weird. Haha

We're lucky to have a lead here. RN we're batting .188 with Illinois errors boosting our production.

4-2 N after 5

On the corners, 1 out, Burnham up, new Illinois pitcher, bottom of the 6th. 4-2 N

 

[coolonetoo]

Only one hit since the second batter of the game. The bullpen might have to win this one. (YIKES!!!)

 

[k9_r]

Still 4-2 after six complete.

 

[k9_r]

Kyle Perry on the mound for the 7th.

 

[k9_r]

Two out single, homer. 6-3 N

 

[k9_r]

7-3. Everitt launched one.

 

[RobsterMobster]

I guess if you are going to only have 6 hits have 4 of them be for homeruns.

 

[k9_r]

7th is over. Side arming Hawkins on the mound. 7-3 N

 

[k9_r]

Hawkins strikes out the side. Huskers 8th coming up, Evans, Burnham, Matthews.

When’s the last time Nebraska baseball had this much home run ability ?

In the BBCOR era? Maybe never. Pretty sure never, we're raining long ball this year.

 

[k9_r]

8-3 Final while batting .214 and .000 w/RISP. Go figure.

 

[RobsterMobster]

Sounds like Michael Garza tomorrow.

They're on pace to hit about 88 in the regular season For contrast, the 2013 team hit 15.
