Big 12: Longhorns escape bases-loaded jam, go to the 9th

By Eric Sorenson - May 26, 2007

Still Texas 5 - Nebraska 4 going into the 9th.

First NU scored a run on a single where UT right fielder Kyle Russell misplayed the ball, then dropped it trying to pick it up. That error allowed Andy Gerch to score all the way from 1st base on a routine single.

NU worked the baes loaded with two out and had Jeff Lanning at the dish. Unfortunately for him, he weakly chopped a ball off the plate and the catcher caught the bounce and touched home for the last out.
