Gotta blow up those pesky Golden Gophers.

2-1 Minnesota after. 1.  Yepper...

Did we switch balls or did they just stop carrying out?  Man these past few weeks we just can’t barrel it.

It sure carried out for the Minnesota guy on his 1st home run of the year. 

 

We might not make the Big 10 tournament.

[brfrad]

Now, our ace is getting hammered around the ballpark.  This last half of the season is going to be LONG.

 

We can't hit and our starters are pitching horribly.

[brfrad]

Forgot to say Minnesota is the worst hitting team in the league.

And at one point people were talking that EO was a possible AA..... not unless he reallly turns it around.

After 2 innings, I was wondering if someone else should take his spot.  Now, he got us through 6.  

 

I was looking through the team stats.  It has been an offensive year in the Big 10.  Iowa leads the Big 10 in ERA at 4.11.

LOL-- I think he put up 4 straight 0's after I typed this.  Glad to see he frequents this board.  Love ya EO.

Griffin Everitt with a gift hit.

[brfrad]

Max in a slump.  5 - 25 since the start of the Iowa series.

[AuroranHusker]

Nebraska leads 5-4, mid 8th.

 

Still, gotta put these pesky Gophers away. C'mon Big Red!

Big at-bat for Max in the 8th inn. He has the bases juiced in a one-run game. Anderson can help NU put this out of reach! GBR

And Max harmlessly bounces out to the second baseman, unassisted. Dagnabit. C'mon Big Red, gotta put these pesky Gophers to bed.

Hit it right at the 2nd baseman.  Darn it.  I feel he is pressing a bit.

Max needs to stop himself from swinging at every 1st pitch, even if high or outside. Maybe he needs to see a pitch or two...

Oh Shay... oh no...

[AuroranHusker]

Two Gophs on base, and Minny's batter ropes one to left... Swanson happens to be waiting for it. One out. Sheesh.

 

 

[AuroranHusker]

Matthews botches a hard-hit grounder... tie game. Oh man!

 

 

[hskr4life]

Should have been a DP...  now bases loaded.

[AuroranHusker]

Bases juiced for Minny. Lucky for NU that they didn't go for the lead with that lead runner. Shay gassed, obviously.

Game should be over.

[AuroranHusker]

Bunz has to clean up the mess left for him in the top of the 9th inn. Only 1 out, bases are juiced. This is a big spot.

Walked in a run, are you kiddin' me?!?
