Nebraska (23-9) vs. Rutgers (21-13) Series Game Thread

[hskr4life]

One thing that helps with quads is that they move throughout the year and it's dependent on where a team finishes and not when you played them.  So hopefully some of those tweener teams can jump up a quad.

WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER!!!!!!

On to a series win tomorrow.

I am really happy with Clark's outing.  I want to see him get this turned around and this was a good start for that.

Let's put on 'em another 16-1 ass-whoppin' to make up for Fri. nt. GBR Always.

 

Keep pluggin' away with 2-1 weekends. That will work, just can't blow it tmrw.

Gotta get that dub on Sun. GOT TO!! GBR Always.

I know we need to win.  I don't know about using Walsh this early.  They weren't hitting Christo hard.

 

Maybe we can score a bunch of runs and save Walsh for Tuesday.

What a dump Rutgers has for facilities, no press box or lights at the softball facility. And the baseball facility isn't much better

[Bugeaters1]

Some of these calls the ump's  are making.

Leaning into pitches is legal, now!

In New Jersey it is.

I find it kind of odd to be watching a game onE Rutgers TV.  That 2 - 0 pitch was right DOWN the middle, called a ball.

Like I said earlier the ump's are missing a lot of calls.

[Bugeaters1]

Bet this batter is gets a walk.

 

[Bugeaters1]

Rutgers bitching about a strike being called. GOOD GRIFE!!!

[brfrad]

The 1st pitch to Anglim was called a ball to Rutgers in the last half inning.

[brfrad]

Did we get Angel Hernandez behind the plate?

[Bugeaters1]

I wish the college game would put the strike zone box in like they have for the majors.

This HP ump has been awful!  We shoot ourselves in the foot 100% but we haven’t had much help.

The zone is all over the place.

The HBP with 2 outs that should have been the 3rd out was awful.  I believe it should have counted as a strike making it the 3rd strike.  Rutgers goes on to take the lead.  

 

We haven't got the benefits of pitches being called down the middle for balls to get us in hitter's counts.

[brfrad]

We have probably only hit 4 balls hard all day.   Not going to win many games doing that.

[Huskerpapa]

Good grief.

[hskr4life]

Not a good series.  Not a good week.  Almost need to go 4-0 next week to get back in the hosting convo.

[brfrad]

Blowing the 3 run lead in the 9th on Friday was a killer.

 

This kind of season reminds me a little of 2019.  Started the season 21 - 11 and 10 - 2 in conference. Went 3 - 8 in our next 11 before finishing 5 - 1 to finish out the regular season. 

 

Almost need a sweep over Maryland just to get back on track.
