In what has become one of the better Big Ten rivalries on the diamond in the past few years, Michigan and Nebraska put on one of the best performances in recent years in a 10 inning thriller. The stars of the show were the two starting pitchers, probably the top 2 left handed Friday night guys in the conference, in Emmett Olson for Nebraska and Connor O’Halloran for Michigan.
O’Halloran threw 9 innings and had 4 Ks on 111 pitches. He gave up one run on 6 hits. His one run came in the 3rd inning as Nebraska center fielder Casey Burnham his a solo shot for his first home run as a Husker.
