Nebraska didn't have great pitching yesterday. They had two good upper 80s / low 90s guys with a great scouting report.
Multiple guys are swinging through piped pitches trying to uppercut everything out of the park.
Franklin is the most obvious example but most of them are just as guilty of it... there is no way Franklin is going to get to a ball in the upper 3rd of the zone with his current current motion. When he had two clear whiffs on down the pipe 4-seamers you could see the mental decision made by Nebraska... throw another one.
Oh and who thinks Welch will see a fastball at all tonight?
Our hitters have to make adjustments.

quote:that last cat they threw that started at short was pretty damn good. His slider the first couple innings was nasty. It set up everything else imo. The real problem I had was we didn’t hurt him in the 9th. He was clearly laboring out there. I think he got lucky with the get me over curveball to opitz which set up that entire AB. Then battles just reached on ball 4 at his eyes. If we’d been more patient I think we could’ve at least tied it in the 9th because he was running on fumes most of his pitches weren’t even close to the zone. They may come out juiced from their win yesterday but unless they just have an amazing performance from their starter I don’t see how they keep this a low scoring game today. I mean we scored 5 on them the first time we played them and you know they pitched 3 of there better arms that day. My guess is we will see whoever they threw against northeastern on day 1 then after that there pitching will be pretty much toast

i disagree. should we have done better? yes.
But they pitched a guy coming back from tommy john that will be a regular starter for them going forward and closed with their best closer...good chance we saw their current best 1-2 combo in the bullpen last night
