Nebraska baseball lost 4-3 to BYU today, their third straight one-run loss to BYU, because one score losses are the thing at Nebraska. It’s like there’s a secret bet going on between the three major men’s sports teams to see which one can be the most maddening.
The game started out inauspicious as starter Dawson McCarville was out sick, replaced by Jackson Brockett, who was making his first start.
Then WHAMMO!
The universe was in Nebraska’s favor. Cam Chick started the game with a homer, putting Nebraska up 1-0 in the first, and it looked like God might smile favorably on our beloved Huskers.
