Eric the Red Posted April 5, 2005 Author Share Posted April 5, 2005 Huskers Begin Busy Week with Creighton and Iowa Huskers Begin Busy Week with Creighton and Iowa Lincoln -- The Nebraska baseball team embarks on one of its biggest weeks of the season, playing five games in a six-day span beginning Tuesday evening. The Huskers (25-3 overall and 5-1 in the Big 12) begin the week by making the 55-mile drive from Lincoln to Omaha’s Rosenblatt Stadium for a contest against in-state rival Creighton. The game will be carried on the Pinnacle Sports Network, including KLIN 1400 AM (Lincoln), KFAB 1110 AM (Lincoln) and KRVN 880 AM (Lexington). Tickets for the matchup are available at Rosenblatt Stadium on Tuesday afternoon, as a large walk up crowd is expected. The game, the first of two contests in Omaha this season (also May 10) has drawn crowds in excess of 10,000 in each of the past five seasons. Behind Johnny Dorn’s near no-hitter, the Huskers snapped the Bluejays’ 12-game win streak with a 10-2 victory in the teams’ first matchup on March 29. The first meeting drew a Hawks Field regular-season record crowd of 7,278, and Tuesday’s crowd is expected to easily top that mark.

Eric the Red Posted April 6, 2005 Author Share Posted April 6, 2005 Huskers took a dump last night at Rosenblatt Daeges' clutch double propels CU to 4-3 win over Huskers OMAHA — Matt Daeges tried to act as if it was just another win, but the sheepish smile on his face gave it all away. After the Creighton senior ripped a pinch-hit, game-winning RBI double in the bottom of the ninth inning to beat Nebraska 4-3 on Tuesday night at Rosenblatt Stadium, the game’s storyline shifted from a coincidence to near a fairytale ending for the Bluejays. Huskers Drop 4-3 Decision to Bluejays Omaha –Matt Daeges’ pinch-hit RBI double in the bottom of the ninth broke a 3-all tie, as Creighton edged fourth-ranked Nebraska, 4-3, in front of 7,012 at Omaha’s Rosenblatt Stadium Tuesday evening. With one out, Gabe Lapito singled to left before Daeges slapped a 1-1 pitch from Husker reliever Dustin Timm down the third base line past a diving Alex Gordon. The ball went into NU bullpen before left fielder Brandon Fusilier was able to retrieve it and throw out Lapito as he scoring the game-winning win. Quote Link to comment

The Spartans took game two of the doubleheader 11-5, but Iowa rebounded to win Sunday's game 10-7. Friday's game was a classic Big Ten pitcher's dual between Iowa's Luke O'Loughlin and Michigan State's Tim Day. O'Loughlin scattered 10 hits over 8 1/3 innings, striking out nine while walking just one. Day was just a notch better, picking up the win by throwing a complete game and striking out five.

In game two, the Spartans pounded out 12 hits on five different Hawkeye pitchers. Down 11-2 in the bottom of the seventh, the Hawkeyes did what they could to get back in the game, scoring a trio of runs in the final frame, but it wasn't enough. The Hawkeyes were impressive at the plate in Sunday's win, pounding out 11 hits on the day. Senior designated hitter Kris Welker led the way for Iowa, going 3-5 with three RBIs. The Montana native was a triple short of the cycle, picking up a single, double and home run. SCOUTING NEBRASKA • The Nebraska Cornhuskers are 25-3 and ranked fourth by Collegiate Baseball.

On the hill, the Huskers have a team ERA of 2.15. The all-time series between Nebraska and Iowa is tied 7-7. Nebraska is coached by Mike Anderson, who is in his third year at the helm.
