Not everyone can be awesome at delivering free online streaming like our opponents from the WAC and Big West.

Im guessing they will do what they have to do to get people to watch. Sucks that the power 5 schools are all greedy and will charge for anything.

Free innings from a suitable player during the midweek. Helps rest the rest of your staff.
Speaking of, any work on Engelken returning from injury. Would be nice to get another arm ready for the late-season grind, especially with Eddins done for the year.

You'll never get much out of Erstad and the media doesn't press him for answers. He is still "out indefinitely" is all anyone knows.
 
Bottom 8th

Nate Fisher now in to pitch. 2 out single for KState. WP advances the runner to 2nd. K ends the inning.
 
Off the subject a bit but I am looking to get tickets for either Saturday or Sunday this weekend. It would be nice to have the Saturday night game in Omaha at TD Ameritrade. With Nebraska doing well right now and Iowa fans being Iowa fans and knowing nothing about baseball but show up just to see a yellow and black uniform play, they could come near to selling 20k tickets.
 
Top 9th

One out 4 pitch walk to Altavilla. Meyers flies out to CF. Miller lines out to end the frame.
 
Bottom 9th

Luis Alvarado in to pitch. 2 out HBP but the next batter K's to give the Huskers the win!
 
Starting to get that old feeling again. Starting to feel entitled to these wins. Too soon?

In a way it's time we do. We should beat KState, Omaha, and Creighton this year but the difference is we are actually doing it. What sits in the back of my head is the fear of that end of the year slump that tarnishes our season. Hoping this pitching staff is what gets us over the hump though.

Either way I'm loving the winning because it's been way too long.

In fairness, we closed pretty strong last year earning 2nd place in the B1G. That postseason, tho.... oof. Maybe this year we fix that. [praying]

We step closer every year but still the lull. Hopefully this is the year we avoid the lull all together. This year does have a different feel though because of our pitching staff, so far anyways.
