Gabe Swansen flipped Nebraska baseball’s Big Ten Tournament script on Wednesday night. Literally. After working a walk on a 12-pitch at bat to begin the second inning, the junior from Johnston, Iowa, sent his bat end over end toward the Husker dugout. Everything came up Nebraska from then on out. “It really boosts the energy, that’s for sure and it kinda motivated us,” freshman outfielder Case Sanderson said. “Seeing a guy that hasn’t been playing much at all this year, seeing that fire in him and to go out there and start the inning with a 12-pitch at-bat and end up walking. It was good to se...

Nothing went Nebraska’s way on Tuesday night. In the most lopsided Big Ten Tournament game since 2010, the No. 2-seeded Huskers fell to No. 7 Ohio State 15-2 in seven innings. The loss marked the largest margin of defeat in the 2024 season. None of the last 26 Big Ten Tournament champions tasted defeat in their opening-round matchup. For head coach Will Bolt, the most disappointing part of a rock-bottom night came on the mound. Runs were going to be tough to come by against Buckeye ace Landon Beidelschies. “We were gonna have to win a 3-2, 5-3 game,” Bolt said. “Our inability to get off the fi...

Brett Sears delivered night in and night out all season long. Tuesday morning brought the first of what will likely be a host of postseason accolades for the Huskers’ ace. The Big Ten office announced Sears as the Big Ten Pitcher of the Year just hours before the start of the conference tournament in Omaha. Sears’ honors make him the first Nebraska arm to earn the award since the Huskers joined the Big Ten in 2012. Join HuskerOnline today and get your first month of a premium subscription for just $1!

In less than 24 hours, Nebraska baseball will begin postseason play in Omaha at Charles Schwab Field. The Huskers (16-8) are the No. 2 seed after finishing two games behind Illinois (18-6) in the Big Ten standings. Head coach Will Bolt’s squad is 34-19, one victory ahead of where his 2023 team finished at 33-23-1. Nebraska is in great position to secure an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament at No. 31 in the RPI. The Huskers’ first-round draw of Ohio State (No. 62) as well as a potential meeting with Indiana in the second round (No. 60) represent opportunities to further build that resume. Neb...

Runs were hard to come by on Thursday night. Nebraska came out on the right-side of a low-scoring affair and picked off a 2-1 win over Michigan State. The victory helped the Huskers keep pace with Illinois in the race for the Big Ten regular season crown. Head coach Will Bolt’s squad is 15-7 in conference play and is a game back of the Fighting Illini. Illinois downed Purdue 5-4 to move to 16-6 in the Big Ten. NU has tied its win total from 2023 at 33-18. Brett Sears logged his 11th quality start of the season and Caleb Clark finished the game’s final 2 1/3 innings. Both pitchers combined for ...

Nebraska’s Wednesday-night loss to South Dakota State played out like a bizarre B-movie. A horrific late twist and titanic collapse put the Huskers on the business side of a tragic ending. Consider Friday’s series-opening train wreck against Indiana a rerun. In the first game of a must-win series, the Huskers took a two-run lead to the top of the ninth. Sixth-year senior Kyle Perry took the ball. Nebraska lost 10-5. The Hoosiers plated seven in the game’s final inning and dropped the Huskers to 30-18 overall and 12-7 in Big Ten play. Nebraska is 10-13 since the start of April after the team’s ...

Nebraska baseball’s final home series of the season just may be the most important three-game set of the year. The Huskers sit in the middle of a logjam atop the Big Ten standings and are tied with two other teams for second place at 12-6 in conference. One of those two squads, Indiana (27-19-1, 12-6), comes to the Star City this weekend. Just 1.5 games separate conference leader Illinois and fifth-place Iowa. Head coach Will Bolt’s squad finishes with the Hoosiers and then at Michigan State next weekend. Indiana has won five straight Big Ten series. “You’ve got to fight for what you want,” Bo...

Five days after pitching a no-hitter, Nebraska baseball's Jackson Brockett was showered with accolades Monday. He also enjoyed a special date with history. The junior lefthander from Omaha was named national pitcher of the week by D1Baseball and Perfect Game, and he was also named Big Ten Pitcher of the Week. Brockett's gem came Wednesday night in the Huskers' 8-0 win over Kansas State in Lincoln. He struck out 12 batters and walked two in his first start of the season. It was only the second nine-inning individual no-hitter in Nebraska program history. The first Husker to pull off the feat wa...

Nebraska baseball remained in the hunt for a Big Ten Conference title with a series victory at Minnesota this weekend. The Huskers topped the Gophers in two games, dropping Sunday's finale. NU is now 30-16 on the season, including 12-6 in the Big Ten. Minnesota is 21-21 with a league record of 7-11. Illinois leads the league at 13-5. Nebraska won a relatively high scoring affair Friday night, thanks in part to Dylan Carey's two-run home run in the seventh inning. That gave NU the lead a lead that wouldn't be given back as the Huskers won 10-7. The series was clinched Saturday with a 7-3 Husker...

Friday’s Nebraska-Minnesota series opener was a slugfest. Yet despite the untraditional game script and another off night for Brett Sears, the Huskers put together a stout offensive performance en route to a 10-7 win. After the Gophers overcame an early five-run Nebraska lead, Dylan Carey gave the Huskers a major shot in the arm with a two-run bomb in the seventh. That capped a three-hit, three-RBI day for the sophomore shortstop. It’s Carey’s third three-hit showing of the year. Will Bolt’s and company now own a 29-15 record and are 11-5 in Big Ten play. The Huskers outhit the Gophers 14-11. ...
