Will the \u201creal\u201d Nebraska baseball team please stand up?<\/p>\n
Husker fans are hoping the team that showed up Sunday in Nebraska\u2019s third game at the Amegy Bank College Baseball Series in Arlington, Texas, the one that defeated Florida State 10-1<\/a>, is the \u201creal\u201d one.<\/p>\n The Huskers stood up with a 10-hit attack, led by Dylan Carey, who was 3-for-5 with a double, an inside-the-park home run and five runs-batted-in. \u201cI\u2019m proud of Dylan Carey for how he kind of responded today,\u201d Coach Will Bolt said on the Huskers Radio Network.<\/p>\n Bolt was referring to Saturday\u2019s 5-3 loss<\/a> to Kansas State, in which Carey was 0-for-4 with two strikeouts. In Friday\u2019s opener, a 4-2 loss<\/a> to Louisville, he was 3-4 with a double and home run.<\/p>\n Bolt was also proud of Sunday\u2019s pitching. Starter Gavin Blachowicz and relievers Colin Nowaczyk and Cooper Katskee allowed only two hits, walked three and struck out 14.<\/p>\n Blachowicz earned his second victory in as many career starts at Nebraska. \u201cHe suffocated the strike zone,\u201d Bolt said, \u201cjust looked like a veteran out there.\u201d<\/p>\n Blachowicz allowed one hit, a home run, but struck out six in five innings.<\/p>\n It was redemption, of sorts, for Nowaczyk, who lasted one inning in a start against Stanford Monday, allowing five hits and six runs. Sunday, he pitched two hitless innings, striking out the first four batters he faced. He got the next batter, and walked the sixth \u2014 whom the Huskers later picked off trying to steal.<\/p>\n Katskee pitched two one-hit innings, striking out four, in his first appearance as a Husker.<\/p>\n Nowaczyk had a \u201chuge bounce back from last week and (it was) good to see Katskee roll out there and get a couple of zeroes,\u201d said Bolt. Katskee didn\u2019t pitch the opening series because of health issues.<\/p>\n Ty Horn started the Louisville game, allowing five hits and one earned run in five innings. Carson Jasa started the Kansas State game, pitching 5.2 innings, striking out eight, allowing three earned runs on two hits, four walks and a hit batter. Relievers Caleb Clark and J\u2019Shawn Unger were charged with the losses.<\/p>\n Carey\u2019s two-run double followed Joshua Overbeek\u2019s sacrifice fly to give the Huskers a three-run lead in the top of the first inning against Florida State, which entered the weekend ranked 16th nationally. The Seminoles had suffered their only loss against Auburn Saturday.<\/p>\n
