Ohio State Takes Series From Nebraska Baseball
The Husker bats stayed cold as the Buckeyes upset Nebraska with a 7-3 win
Ohio State got off to a fast start. A leadoff single was followed by a pair of walks to load the bases with 1 out. After an early mound visit, Husker starting pitcher induced a popup for the second out.
Ohio State DH Mason Eckelman drove a ball to the right field warning track which Drew Grego had to hustle to catch up to. He was able to get a glove on it, but not make the catch before slamming into the wall. The bases would clear, and Eckelmen slid into third with a 3 RBI triple.
Nebraska finally got on the board in the 3rd. What looked like an inning ending groundout by Mac Moyer was unable to be caught by the first baseman. Catcher Jeter Worthley worked a full count before being hit by a pitch to put runners on first and second.
First baseman Case Sanderson shot the first pitch he saw right back up the middle, scoring Moyer for an unearned run. Huskers cut the lead to 3-1. Huskers on the board.
