LOL I was looking at the single game stats I think.  Not yearly

We are at .980 fielding %.  We keep fielding and throwing strikes, we're set up to have a great year.  Especially,  with the bats we have.

Through 8 games, the Huskers have hit 13 taters. through 8 games last year they only had 4.

[Bugeaters1]

These umps are a piece of work.

 

[Bugeaters1]

That was a brutal top of the 4th inning for the umps

Nebraska leads Hawai'i 2-0, mid 4th.

Nebraska leads Hawai'i 3-0, mid 5th.

Nebraska is leading Hawai'i 8-0, mid 6th.

I just started to listen to the game. They are doing really well up in Minneapolis. I love baseball.  I just can't get emotionally invested in Husker Baseball until the basketball season is over. 

[Bugeaters1]

So far this season, this team has proven that they can hit, and hit with power.

Max gets pinch ran for.  Will not get the chance for the cycle.  Just needed a home run.

So did Bryce

I expect this is what a lot of our B1G series games will look like (or should look like) if we play to our potential.

[hskr4life]

Kudos to the B1G so far this year though as we have some B1G wins.

[AuroranHusker]

Nebraska leads Hawai'i 12-3, after 8 inn.

[49r]

This should help the 'ol RPI

 

 

[AuroranHusker]

No errors for a 2nd straight game is a good sign. More consistent pitching also helps. The bats continue to spark the team. GBR

Hawaii is beating Maryland 6-3 in top of the 8th.

[throwback]

Well, disappointing way to end a great weekend. Time to let the freshman Clark work out the kinks against lesser mid-week foes and give Garza the ball on Sundays. 

 

To go 5-4-1 through the first three road trips is a very nice start, better than I expected. I think with our offense and our Friday / Saturday starters, we'll be a factor in the B1G race. Kind of unfortunate that we have to play both Maryland and Iowa on the road, but that's just the beauty of this horrible unbalanced schedule. Adding UCLA & USC may fix some of that, if they do the schedule right.

 

Still need more guys to step up and throw strikes consistently out of the bullpen, as we're a little thin there. It will help to get some of those guys work against lesser opponents the next couple of weeks. I'd guess with our offense and bullpen inconsistencies there will be some wild back and forth finishes to games this season.

 

Time to rack up a lot of wins on this home stand. This is a part of the schedule we have to dominate to keep our RPI in reasonable territory. Hope the weather doesn't screw things up too much.

 

[hskr4life]

Throw away that first inning blunder and we lose 6-5 today.  I'd have taken that.

 

Wind definitely got taken out of our sails after that first inning, but overall a successful weekend.  We can win the B1G or at least be a factor in the B1G.  A regional is a must this year.

 

Overall, not perfect, but a darn good weekend for the ol RPI.

[Bugeaters1]

Vandy no hit minny,  Hawaii beat Maryland 9-3. Maryland goes 0-3. Minny has yet to win a game.

Go at least 2-1 every weekend, and you're probably going to the NCAAs.

[Red Rum]

I honestly didn't see coming out of the weekend 2-1. Starting to get more optimistic about this team. Ready to freeze my butt off watching some home baseball. Love this time of year, second favorite tailgating.

[Huskerpapa]

40 degree rule.  At or over, I will be watching some baseball.  Under, I stay home.  Applies for golf as well.  For whatever reason, it does not apply to football.
