Strikeout swinging ends the inning. Nebraska needs some 9th inning magic down 5-1 against Illinois. Due up for Nebraska; Pritchard (1-3), Kelly (1-3), Lubach (0-2)

Game over Lubach strikes out. Huskers lose 5-1. Need to win tomorrow.

 

[hskrfan4life]

Indiana leads Minnesota 7-2 in bottom of the 8th, Michigan State swept the DH against Penn State both games by the score of 4-2. Northwestern beat Ohio State 6-2. If Ohio State loses tomorrow I believe they don't make the tournament.

Penn St turned 2 triple plays in 1 of those games, 4th and 8th inning

Very frustrating game last night. Man, I know more than just Darby did this last night but he just really sticks out to me, how bad they were at watching the same strikes go by them all night long. It was ridiculous and unacceptable really. Their Defense was not good last night either. Missed some plays on the more difficult side that they normally make or at least the majority of the time. Their focus wasn't good last night. Hopefully they can get it back today and get the series. GBR!!
