Playing no-longer-existent ESPN Instant Classics is becoming as regular as Iowa fans screaming into the wind on Twitter. The Huskers did it again, but with two out in the bottom of the 10th inning, most of the 60 or so freezing Husker faithful were probably just thinking, “Shit, this thing’s going to the 11th inning and I can’t feel either set of cheeks.”
Then, with reliever Kaylin Kinney on 1st, freshman Sammie Bland ripped a single to right pushing her to the other corner. Another frosh, Alina Felix followed by tagging one past the pitcher’s glove to bring Kinney home when they were unable to make a play at 1st, finally ending the marathon with a 6-5 comeback win.
