I don't know; but I am betting the wind will be playing a role.

Big shut down inning.  Where has this team been?  Oregon State may flex their muscles later, but we have went toe to toe with them for 3 1/2 innings.

Stone tried to launch one, instead of just trying to make contact.

We're getting hits, manufacturing runs, and playing decent D. This is much more like what I expected. Maybe we can use this weekend as a springboard.

This is what I was thinking it was going to look like.

Another video replay with a bang bang play.  I'm sure it'll be overturned.

[brfrad]

Wow!  They actually let it stand.

[brfrad]

Much better at-bat by Stone.  Ended up being an out, but he didn't overswing.  9 outs away from a huge win.  Let's do it!

[brfrad]

Tried to get another inning from Walsh.  8 straight balls.  Now, it's up to the bullpen.

[brfrad]

Despite those last 2 walks.  A great effort from Walsh tonight.

Thank goodness for replay.  How do you miss the call by a full step.

I thought it was closer than what the replay showed.

A rough inning for the HP ump.  Pitches that were called balls when OSU was batting were called strikes with Nebraska batting.

We better get those same calls!

We finally did.

WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER!!!!!!!

 

[hskr4life]

Boom!

[Bugeaters1]

Only 4 over the minimum batters faced.

[hskr4life]

We dropped them from 15 to 22 in the RPI with that loss-- almost from a Q1 to Q2 game. Hopefully they end the week as a Q2 game as that means we probably took care of business this weekend.

Annual PSA that there's no reason not to have more baseball/softball games on BTN. Have some local announcers, but put the game on TV.  Can't be that difficult.
