Tempe: Go - Big - Red!

By Jason Owens - June 01, 2007

The Huskers have found life and so have the fans here at Brock Ballpark. After allowing two hits and throwing a wild pitch to start the eighth, Riverside starter James Simmons got the hook holding a 7-3 lead. Taylor Bills came out of the bullpen and couldn't stop the bleeding.

The Huskers countered with pinch hitter Nick Sullivan, who singled to right field to score another run, prompting the Nebraska faithful to stand up and cheer for the first time. Two hits later and DJ Sullivan's single scored Sullivan to pull the Nebraska deficit to a much more manageable 7-5 heading into the bottom of the eighth.
