Official 2025 Nebraska Cardiac Beaver Slayers Baseball Thread - (31-27) - HUSKERS ADVANCE TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME ON SUNDAY AT 2:00 P.M.

[SlumpBuster]

Nunez is gonna be a dude. Hes been hitting well the past few weeks.

Frost is coming around too. Hopefully we cat get some momentum today.

This inning may just be what the doctor ordered. Even Swanson is getting hits again.

That bunt was a work of art.

 

[...TrueColors...]

I’m kind of in and out of this game gents.

Really would like a strikeout and double play here….

 

[Samkellers_69]

Swanson needs to ride the pine.

 

[Kaladin]

it was 5-4 and now its 9-4

wtf happened

 

[Samkellers_69]

No m

it was 5-4 and now its 9-4

wtf happened

Fucking veteran players fucking up again.

 

[...TrueColors...]

it was 5-4 and now its 9-4

wtf happened

Hitting that’s been unlucky. Pitching that has been kind of inexcusable.

The Huskers have sent 3 baseballs to the track that have ended up as outs.

 

[Ironwardog]

11-4 now

 

[PonyBoy]

Swanson needs to ride the pine.

DH is where he belongs, but Nunez hasn't been cleared to throw so he's there for now.

 

[Kaladin]

Lost game 1

Now onto game 2

We really needed that soft fly ball in the first. You gotta have that from your LF.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Walsh doing some deep dicking to start the game.

Huskies down in order.

Dugout is getting roudy.

Let’s see if it means anything.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Huskers seeing a ton of off-speed pitches. It had the first two hitters off balance. Nunez was ridiculously surprised when Washington pitcher Thomas reached back and brought 94 down the edge for strike 3.

Predictable mix from Washington as Thomas is throwing soft (for those not use to baseball language “soft” means off speed) until he gets in trouble and then he reaches into his back pocket and brings 94.

I know, we struck out 3 times last inning, but I do kind of like this match up for us their pitcher vs our hitters.

Walsh digs in and he’s quickly got a harmless ground ball to 2B and we are off and running into the 2I.

 

[Samkellers_69]

Silva needs to play center field. IDGAF if he strikes out every time. His coverage makes up for it

 

[...TrueColors...]

They simply can’t figure Walsh out. He did get barreled up on the 2B to the wall, but he missed his spot back over the plate. He’d just went in on the hands with 92 and he was trying to go back downstairs with a curve and the curve just didn’t move for him and it ended up off the wall.

But he quickly gets a soft fly to Carey and we are down in Washington’s half of the inning.

Brumbaugh took a really bad route trying to get to that ball. You could see him banana on the broadcast

 

[...TrueColors...]

Huskers barrel the baseball up twice in that inning, but it’s not led to any hits.

Carey worked that count deep before striking out as he saw 8 pitches.

Second time through the order for the Huskers will be when I think they’ll break through with some runs.

Walsh takes the mound for inning #3

 

[...TrueColors...]

Soft contact from the Huskies in that inning. Walsh is cruising through 3 innings on 32 pitches.

This is where the chess game starts if you’re Childress and Walsh in the second time through the order. What adjustments do you make to keep these Huskie hitters off balance? You’ve achieved it so far. But the other team will adjust as well. So what we doing here in the top of the 4th?

 

[...TrueColors...]

Strike him out throw him out to end the Husker threat…..

Someone missed a sign there I feel. Runner was out by 3 yards.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Walsh still cruising. Would be a shame if the Huskers waste this effort by him.
