Torres grounds to second.
Tucker triples to right center.
Wild pitch, run scores.
Danks strikes out.
Belt flies out to left.

1 run, 1 hit, 0 errors, 0 left.

[kjgirl]

KK looking good so far

 

[HuskerNKingwood]

in the top of the 2nd:

Corriston strikes out
Nimmo bunt single
Rank pops out
Kline strikes out

1-0 Texas, mid second.

from my perspective this is no way to start game 1. Texas is dictating everything right now.

 

[Handler XIII]

husker, you probably know this but you can watch it here...

The Link

I wish they would add the linescore on it though.

 

[CajunHorn]

Keep the updates coming HNK. I'm sitting in the Jackson, MS airport and it's my only chance at some nugget of sanity.

 

[Handler XIII]

anyone have UT's lineup? Curious what changes Augie made.

 

[kjgirl]

3-0 Texas after 2, let's keep it going boys

 

[HuskerNKingwood]

Well, the bottom of the second went to hell in a handbasket for NU.

Clark grounds to third.
Russell grounds to second.
Moldenhauer singles to right.
McCrory walks.
Hernandez infield single.
Torres 2 RBI single.
Tucker bunt out to Dorn.

3-0 Texas after 2. We need to get it working...fast.

 

[HuskerNKingwood]

oh I'm watching it on that link. Great video.

 

[PitchingGuru]

As for the changes: McCrory is at 3rd. Tucker 2nd base and Torres moved to LF.

 

[kjgirl]

RF: K. Russell
CF: J. Danks
LF: M. Torres
C: P. Clark
1B: B. Belt
2B: T. Tucker
SS: D. Hernadez
3B: P. McCrory
P: Big Bird (K. Kasperek)

 

[2xHORN]

Here's our lineup:

Torres, Michael lf 2 0 1 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Tucker, Travis 2b 2 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Danks, Jordan cf 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Belt, Brandon 1b 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0
Clark, Preston c 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 0 0
Russell, Kyle rf 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0
Moldenhauer, Russell dh 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
McCrory, Pat 3b 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Hernandez, David ss 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0
Kasparek, Kenn p 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

Looks like Augie took advantage of [[Kyle's absence]] to put Torres in left, Tucker at 2B, and McCrory at 3B. [[The acid test will be when Kyle gets back I guess.]] I really can read! Who's spot is Torres taking up in LF?

I guess I really meant Kyle Lusson???

HOOKEM

 

[HuskerNKingwood]

In the top of the 3rd:

Belfonte lines out to right
Mort walks
Opitz walks
Abeita infield fly
Sullivan hit by pitch
Corriston force out 4-3

6 left for the Huskers through the first three innings.

3-0 in the middle of the third. A comeback attempt by NU will be steep and very, very long.

 

[kjgirl]

We have seen at least Moldenhauer, Clark, Lusson and Keyes all see time in left field this season.

 

[SWHorn]

I was having serious issues with the video today and had to close it.

 

[HuskerNKingwood]

in the bottom of 3, Texas scores again.

Danks doubles
Belt doubles, RBI
Wild pitch
Clark grounds out to catcher
Russell flies out to right
Moldenhauer lines out to first.

4-0 after 3.

Huskers finally get on the board in the top of 4.

Nimmo HBP.
Wild pitch.
Rank Ks swinging.
Kline grounds out 4-3, runner advances to third
Belfonte double, RBI
Mort grounds out to pitcher.

4-1, mid 4th. Hold Texas off the board here and things may be a bit better for us.

 

[Ramathorn]

Is Torres's bat really that much better than the other guys?

 

[HuskerNKingwood]

A quick bottom of the 4th.

McCrory grounds out to short
Hernandez grounds out to short
Torres grounds out to first (great play took away a hit)

4-1 after 4. Just gotta keep plugging.

 

[HuskerNKingwood]

Huskers putting themselves in position to get back in the game, as Texas goes to the pen. So far in the 5th:

Opitz fly out to center
Abeita HBP
Sullivan single to right, Abeita to third
Corriston 2 run double

4-3 as Shinaberry comes in for Texas.

 

[HuskerNKingwood]

Nimmo walks, and Texas is going to the bullpen once again. Gonna be Brandon Workman coming in.

 

[HuskerNKingwood]

Johnston singles, and then Kline drives in two more with a single, putting the Huskers in the lead.

Then, Belfonte flied out to center, and Johnston was caught stealing third.

Halfway home, 5-4 Huskers. Gotta keep Texas off the board in the 5th.

 

[HuskerNKingwood]

Quick bottom of the fifth.

Tucker grounds to first, unassisted
Danks grounds out, first to pitcher
Belt grounds out to second

5-4 after 5. Just your typical Nebraska/Texas baseball game - gonna go right down to the wire.

 

[TexasBaseball7]

i mentioned it when the weekend rotation was put out. kk vs. dorn was not a good matchup for UT. we had our chance to put dorn away and we didn't do it. kk is still very rusty(walks, hit batters). we need to get into neb's pen and keep their bats silent.

 

[HuskerNKingwood]

In the 6th, Huskers score again.

Mort Ks
Opitz home run
Abeita Ks
Sullivan singles, and steals second
Corriston Ks

6-4, mid 6th.
