Barton, I always enjoy your posts on Big 12 baseball. I agree with you on all of your predictions for the upcoming weekend except that aggy will NOT sweep Tech. Tech will win 2-1 or at worst go 1-2. If Texas can go 2-1 against OSU I'll take that. The Cowboys are damn tough in Stillwater.

Hook'em!
 
I hope you're right about Tech. They've managed to take a game from Nebraska, Baylor, Texas ... just had a weird feeling that A&M would own that series.
 
I'm not sold on the ags on the road. I think Tech wins at a minimum one game. Sadly, the conference is looking like a bunch of mediocre teams with no one separating themselves.
 
I really think that Tech will give A&M some trouble... They impressed me last weekend...Ramos can throw and Richburg can absolutely rake…..they need to play better defense than the did last weekend though

Baseball: Huskers clobbered in 15-1 loss
BY MITCH SHERMAN
WORLD-HERALD BUREAU



LINCOLN — Kansas State hammered the Nebraska baseball team 15-1 today in the opening game of a doubleheader, the Huskers' worst loss ever at Haymarket Park.

It marked the most lopsided defeat at home for NU since Oklahoma beat the Huskers 24-7 in 1996.

The Wildcats (22-8, 3-4 Big 12) scored five runs in the first inning off Nebraska's Jordan Roualdes, four in the fifth against reliever Erik Bird and five in the ninth off freshman Nate Kerkhoff.

NU (16-12, 4-6) lost for the sixth time in its past eight games. It has allowed 84 runs in seven games dating to March 24.

K-State pitcher Lance Hoge allowed five hits and struck out two in six innings. The senior lefty exited with a 10-1 lead.

Roualdes struggled from the start, surrendering consecutive singles in the top of the first to leadoff man Adam Muenster, Carter Jurica, Nick Martini and Justin Bloxom. The Wildcats scored twice on Martini's hit, again on a ground out by Jason King and two more runs on Dane Yelovich's two-out bloop single into right field.

Final line for Roualdes: Eight runs on 10 hits in four innings.

Kyle Bubak and Boomer Collins finished with two hits apiece for Nebraska. Collins singled in the first and scored in the first on Tyler Farst's two-out hit.

And that was it for the NU offense. It stranded two runners in four innings and missed an opportunity in the fourth inning as Yelovich caught a sinking, two-out liner hit by Bubak with Jeff Tezak and Cody Neer in scoring position.

Kansas State held its ace, junior right-hander A.J. Morris, for tonight's second game. Morris takes the mound with a 7-0 mark in seven starts and a miscroscopic 0.39 earned-run average.

Freshman right-hander Sean Yost will pitch for Nebraska.
