05/18/2012

The Nebraska baseball team (33-20, 13-9 Big Ten) secured its spot at next week’s Big Ten Baseball Tournament on Thursday night with a 15-2 win over the Michigan Wolverines at Wilpon Complex. The 15 runs were the most for the Huskers in a Big Ten opener this season, as every Husker starter had at least one hit on the night. NU strung together a conference-high 20 hits off four Michigan pitchers, including a career-high four hits Rich Sanguinetti, who also tied a career high with four RBI’s. Four Huskers roped doubles on the night, while Kale Kiser stroked his first triple of the season.
    On the mound, lefty Kyle Kubat continued to set the pace for the Huskers, as the freshman picked up his third straight win in conference play. Now 5-0 on the season. 
    Junior Ryan Hander will try to win the series for the Huskers tomorrow when he takes the mound for his second career conference start at 5:05 p.m. (CT).
