  1. It was pretty clear. The first runner shouldn't have been sent, the second should have.
  2. What were the situations in these cases? Maybe Im just reading your sentence wrong but it sounds like runner on 2nd and the batter hit a double? And the guy on second got thrown at at home? I believe both were runners on first and second, one out. The first one did hang in the wind for a second and there was some question whether it would be caught or not. The second was clearly not going to be caught, and especially when it got bumbled and rolled to the fence, the runner on 2nd should have been sent home.
  3. I'm already booked for an appearance next Saturday and another on April 8th! The pre-game huddle and the Umps & Catcher just after the National Anthem. Some in-game action:
  4. Sitting on the 3rd base line with that wind in our face all day pretty much sucked. Lots of opportunities to win today. Missed too many. Bolt cost us some runs. Forget which inning it was, but he sent the runner from second on a double to the right field gap, only to get the runner cut down at the plate. Clearly shouldn't have sent the runner, but he did. Fast-forward to the 8th and a nearly identical play, but Bolt held the runners even though the ball made it to the wall. Would have scored one easily, possibly both. Not griping at Bolt. He's learning. I have some pictures I'll post in a little bit.
  5. I sometimes find it funny how little the guys on the team actually know about the team's history, the fans, etc. They're athletes, not fans, so some of them don't get why that would be a big deal to people.
  6. Spitsnogle came in throwing heaters in the top of the 9th. LA Tech got a couple of runs, but we won, 11-4. Since getting shut out in the third game of the Cal series, we've won five straight, by an average score of 13-3. Tomorrow we're going to our first game of the year. Here's hoping for the sweep.
  7. Some pics from this morning. If this one looks a little funny, it's actually two pictures spliced together. On the first the cranes/sky were fine but the structure was too dark. On the second, the structure was visible but the cranes/sky were washed out.
  8. For the third straight game, when the Huskers have led late, they do not let up, but instead step on the neck of their opponent. Farmer blasts a two-out, three-run homer to make it 10-2 Huskers.
  9. Bottom of the 8th, 7-2 Huskers, man on 2nd with no outs. Bryan Peters at bat. Edit - Pritchard with a single. Sanguinetti up with runners at the corners, one out.
  10. Currently 2-1 Good Guys, bottom of the 4th. Darby Scheffert led off with a triple single. Man on 3rd, nobody out. Darby up. Oops. Fixed. EDIT - I got that all screwed up. Scheffert led off with a single to third. Darby followed with a single. Men on first and third, nobody out.
  11. The wind is blowing in from Right, but anything hit up and into the gap in Left-Center should make the berm. Chad Christensen hit one out. Top 2nd, tied 1-1. Christensen has 16 2-out RBI this year. Last year Cody Asche led the team with 16 2-out RBI for the season. (info courtesy @Husker_Baseball)
  12. Nobody has intentionally misrepresented anything you've said - unless it was to make a joke, and then it was quite obvious. Your second sentence is an attempt at taking some of the responsibility for the misunderstandings of your posts, but then you go on to spread blame on everyone but yourself. Sad. But if you're unable to cope with the rigors of posting on HuskerBoard, it may be a good idea to part ways.
  13. 14-2 in the sixth. The Bulldogs have plated a couple of runs, but at this point it's all over but the shouting.
  14. They are swinging some wicked bats today. This team is beginning to impress me. Erstad said his guys would have a killer instinct, and so far he's delivering.
  15. That is rather condescending, considering the fact that you have never impressed me with your knowledge of the sport.
  16. @Matt_Schick: Doc Sadler in the house for Florida/Virginia. Still wearing Husker logo shirt. #Huskerforlife

      He's gotta have an old UTEP shirt around somewhere...

  17. That is not what Muschamp said. He said: LINK
  18. I think it was pretty obvious that Taylor was not making reads at times last year - that, or other teams became MUCH better at defending it. I have no explanation for that, other than a guess that he was still injured. As far as 2010, I would imagine it was post-injury. I don't recall anyone concluding that he was not making reads in 2010, but the last half of the season was such a mess... who knows. In the Texas game the problem was not Taylor making poor reads. It was Nebraska thinking they were better than they were and disrespecting an opponent. Same thing happened in the bowl game against Washington. And against Northwestern in 2011. And against Iowa State in 2009. This is a recurring theme with this team over the past few years. They get so wrapped up in "being Nebraska" that they forget they are not the 80s and 90s Huskers who were standing on the shoulders of giants, they are the current Huskers, who have a lot of proving left to do.
  19. #7 is just Microsoft's Format Painter, isn't it? Highlight the text format you want to copy, click this button: and select the text you need to change. If you need to change text in multiple places, double-click the painter button and select whatever text you want to reformat anywhere on your doc. It works across different docs, too, so if you have a header format you like in one doc, highlight it and click the button, go to your new doc and paint that format on whatever text you want changed, and then you can paint any other text with that format on that doc, too. Format Painter is a universal feature in Office. I use it WAY more in Excel than in Word. The Quick Parts trick might be something to play around with, but it seems from the description that I'll have to take hands off the keyboard and mouse-click something, whereas with AutoText I just type my shortcut and hit enter or space or whatever, and my word, phrase or paragraph pops in. I use AutoText A LOT, and the benefit to keeping your fingers on the keys is huge.
  20. Depends. I can take the afternoon off and get there early, but I think most people were thinking evening. I'm not doing both, so we need to settle on a time. Brewsky's serves decent burgers, so we could meet at 6-7pm and eat, then hang out and spread some BS around over some beers. With the Spring Game and the VB match the next day I'm not probably staying out late, and I'm too old to go on a bar crawl.
  21. Cody Green was not capable of making reads in 2010, and his "reads" were called keepers or handoffs. Likely that's what you're thinking of.
