Mistakes Cost Nebraska Baseball in 5-4 Loss to Rutgers

In what has become an all too familiar sight in recent memory, Rutgers yet again leaves Haymarket Park with a victory. They’ve done it the last 5 games in a row. And again Nebraska spent nearly the entire game playing from behind.

Emmet Olson took the mound for Nebraska in only his second start as a Husker. And the sophomore turned in his finest performance of his career thus far. Going 6.2 innings and striking out 5 batters, including 4 of the last 5 he faced. The lone blemish for Olson was a 3 run 2nd inning

The inning started out with an error by Husker short stop Brice Matthews, who had been playing perfectly after struggling to start the season.
