Big Ten Baseball Tournament: Rutgers falls to Nebraska in first round

Rutgers entered the Big Ten Tournament as a team with strong arms but it was offense that ruled the day in round one.

The Scarlet Knights fell behind quickly but the bats were hot, allowing them to climb back in. When it was all said and done, Nebraska was just too much as Rutgers fell 9-7 in the first round on Wednesday afternoon in Omaha.

Rutgers will now take on Michigan State on Wednesday at 11am. The Spartans were taken down by top-seeded Maryland on Tuesday.

The Huskers took an early lead with a three-run homer in the bottom of the first inning.
