Steil and Pitching Staff Lead Huskers to 4-0 Win
Round Rock, Texas – After dropping the series opener on Friday night the Nebraska baseball team rebounded with three straight wins, including a 4-0 victory on Sunday, to take a series from the Purdue Boilermakers at Dell Diamond Stadium.
Following the 6-5 walk-off loss on Friday, Nebraska outscored Purdue 21-2 over the final three games of the series.
Freshman Jack Steil made the most of his first career start on Sunday, going 2-3 with a double, a home run and a three RBIs. Steil's first career hit was a RBI double in the second and then his two-run homer in the top of the ninth gave NU a cushion heading into the bottom of the frame.
