For a day when Omaha saw sun for the first time in what seems like forever, the Creighton offense went dark as Winthrop’s starting pitcher Nate Pawelczyk controlled the game from the outset in a 4-0 loss to the Eagles.
The Bluejays entered Saturday’s game against Winthrop having won the opener of the series with a combination of offense and defense. Their recent play has been a far cry from the way they began the season. Creighton entered game two having won seven of their last eight games, having scored 42 runs in those seven wins.
