Official 2025 Nebraska Cardiac Beaver Slayers Baseball Thread (7-8) - Huskers On Fire, 3 game winning streak

[Samkellers_69]

Solo dinger 2-0 UCLA

 

[...TrueColors...]

Soft ground ball to 2B - 1 out

It’s very evident Walsh is using offspeed to set up FB. He’s fooling nobody with his FB.

I say this and then he’s get a backwards K on two straight FB. Out 2.

Kid didn’t open his eyes and hit a good pitch out of the park on a ball to the outer half of the plate. He guessed and he got what he guessed. 🙄 2-0 UCLA

Walsh comes back with a strike out. 3rd out.

Walsh reminds me a bit of Nick Pivetta. He really has some pretty workable stuff. But he seems to give up homers at a disproportionate rate… But that one was a solo shot and generally those don’t beat you in the 4th inning.

Huskers have to hit.

Runner on second zero outs -

Overbeek strikes out

 

[Samkellers_69]

Holy fuck we strike out like no other.

Jesus Christ -

Carey smoked a ball to SS to his backhand. Guy has to plant and throw to first.

But Speedster Stone decided he was going to take off to 3rd and get thrown out for out 2.

 

[...TrueColors...]

That was bad

On a ball to his right? Yikes

On a ball to his right? Yikes

Yep. Sharply hit as well. SS likely gets Carey at 1st who’s barreled up two balls tonight with nothing to show for it.

Bolin then battles on 7 pitches and gets a single. Stone probably scores there

 

[...TrueColors...]

Bolin aggressively reads dirt, steals second.

2 runners in scoring position for Sanderson whose worked a 3-0 count

 

[...TrueColors...]

Bases juiced with a walk to Sanderson.

 

[Kaladin]

why didn't carey try to steal home when UCLA tried to throw Bolin out at 2nd

 

[...TrueColors...]

Buttenbeck barrels a ball to the right fielder…. Out 3

why didn't carey try to steal home when UCLA tried to throw Bolin out at 2nd

Bolin was very aggressive there and I don’t think Carey was expecting him to try it.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Two quick outs by UCLA - Jam shot to CF and Overbeek flashing the leather on a bunt attempt.

Walsh with his first walk of the game.

Walsh now to the stretch for the toughest out in the UCLA lineup Cholowsky whos hit the ball on the nose twice.

Childress is out of the dugout to speak to Walsh.

Bender in the bullpen loosening up.

Childress doesn't make a move

 

[...TrueColors...]

5 straight balls from Walsh...

 

[...TrueColors...]

HE TOTALLY SWUNG ON THAT PITCH!!!!

Bolt is absolutely working the umpire. He's been warned twice this inning.

Walsh hits him. Two on two out.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Walsh quickly up 0-2 on next guy.

GETS A FUCKIN SWORD!!!! Walsh made him look absolutely foolish on that curveball in the right-handed batters box.

Thats likely it for Walsh. The only thing I can think of is he comes out for the 6th on a very short leash.

5 innings - 5ks - 1 BB on 80 pitchs for Walsh.

 

[...TrueColors...]

UCLA now goes to the pen. That closes the book on Delveccio. He'll factor into the decision if the score holds.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Brumbaugh
Nunez
Stone

Up for Nebraska this inning

 

[...TrueColors...]

Brumbaugh strikes out as per Husker tradition to make sure we strike out once an inning.

Nunez up now, he's struck out twice. Last K was painful. This time he walks - Runner on first for Jesske.

Correction - Jesske up now. Not Stone.
