HANC

Not making excuses for Sears, but it was a rough first inning. Just was reading that as storms rolled through Southeast Nebraska and Southwest Iowa , 2 separate tornado’s ripped through his hometown. Maybe his focus was a little off?  It was on social media that an Iowa fan was saying, let’s get in Sears’ head by asking him about the tornados. Wouldn’t expect anything less from that fanbase.

I am sure it probably didn’t factor into the game much, but who knows? 

Huge win on a night when our ace gets beat around a little, but battles enough to give us 5 innings and kept us within striking distance. Offense wakes up and delivers as Froelich and Worthley are fantastic in relief!!! Plus, it is the Hawkeyes!!!

After Froelich shut them down in the top half the husker strand two in the bottom half

Froelich into pitch. new game both starting pitchers are no decision

Stone launches one to tie the game at four! We missed an opportunity as a very aggressive. Send by Harville cost the huskers a run. Brand new game,

Sears gets through 5 with some good defense from Silva. On a positive, even during his roughest outing of the season, Sears has made it five eating up innings. negative, is that we only have two hits

Iowa plates run. they lead 4–1. Ending Sears nation leading nine game consecutive quality starts. He has a lot of two strike hits tonight.

Huskers missed great opportunity at the plate. Manage to get one run back and bases loaded With only one out and could not get another, run home 

Sears gets through top of three with no runs husker dugout not happy with a handful of pitches that inning. A lot of good pitches didn’t go our way

More like it from Sears in the second. Hawkeyes go quietly.

The Hawkeyes all over Sears in the first. Four hits, three runs. Very uncharacteristic

After Maryland puts a run on board, the Huskers answer with 3 runs using good AB and base running. 5-1 good guys, still batting in 2nd

Stone blasts 2 run shot over right field fence. 2-0 Huskers after 1

Clark chased in the 6th, Olson onto pitch and gets 2 quick outs before a 3 run shot. All Maryland today

Able to get to the game today, so not as many updates. MM got roughed up early, along with no offense. Clark has allowed only 1 hit since coming into the game with 1 out in the 2nd. Trailing 6-1 in bottom of 5.

I disagree with score keeper. Should be one earned run as runs 2 and 3 easily, and maybe should have been called unearned. Misplayed ball in outfield and a dropped pop up , which actually hit infielder’s glove. Husker radio guys were very surprised it was ruled hit rather than an error. Pretty irrelevant bc it is a team game and the defense has played very well behind Sears all year, in comparison to some other games. 

Ballgame!!! Back on the right side of the win column. Good pitching, good enough hitting, although we did fail in some areas, shakey defense…. But lead series.. much needed 

Here we go…. Same scenario as one week ago. Quality start by Sears, lead 6-3 into 9th inning…. Blew it last week, can we close tonight 

Worthley on for the Huskers and goes 1-2-3 in the 8th. Need some insurance in bottom of 8

Sears with his 9th consecutive quality start ( only 2 player in country had 8 coming into the weekend), exite s game in the 8th with a chance to go 7-0 on the season.

Overbeek with blast to tie… we had 1st-3rd no outs and only managed 1 on a ball. 2-1 skers

Sears gives up a solo shot! Gets 2 more k, but trail 1-0

Had 2 on, no outs, can’t score . 0-0
