3 hours ago3 hr Administrator No. 2-0 Ducks after one inning. Collin Clarke is the usual Saturday starter for Oregon with a 2.72 ERA, and he put them down in the first inning 1-2-3.The starter for the Cornhuskers, Carson Jasa, is an imposing presence at 6'6" (3.63 ERA) and routinely throws over 95 mph, and can touch 100 mph. Ducks have their hands full!Jasa is prone to walks, and walked Jax Gimenez, and then Brayden Jaksa hit a screamer down the 3rd baseline for a good start. Then Ryan Cooney knocked a big hit to the CF/RF gap to the wall the scored both Gimenez and Jaksa! Mr. FishDuck
3 hours ago3 hr Author Administrator No. 4-0 Ducks after two innings. This is a promising start for Collin Clarke as it appears he has good control today of his changeup pitch...which is hard to hit. Add his fastball and curve-drop, and he has a nice combo of pitches.He gave up a double, but dispensed with the rest of the Nebraska side easily.Jax Gimenez was plinked, and true freshman Brayden Jaksa continues his hot hitting streak with a hit to shallow LF, while Gimenez jets to 3rd! Jaksa steals second, so OUR BELOVED DUCKS have two in scoring position.The Pride of Portland, Ryan Cooney hits his second double to score two runs, as his rifled hit zips to the LF corner. Whew! Mr. FishDuck
3 hours ago3 hr Author Administrator No. 5-0 Ducks after three innings. Collin Clarke is very emotional, and can be a hot-head to other teams. He caught a line-drive right at him, and then had a stare-down with the batter that did not go over well with the Nebraska dugout, nor the umpires. Everyone was warned, and then Clarke kept them scoreless again.Angel Laya hits deep off the CF wall for a double, and then RS freshman Naulivou Lauaki Jr. sent a missile to LF to score Laya! Mr. FishDuck
2 hours ago2 hr Author Administrator No. 6-5 Nebraska after four innings. Good gosh...they figured out Collin Clarke big-time, and just carved him up. He gave up two solo HRs, and 2-run HR, and a ton of hits that scored another. What a nightmare inning...In this inning...Oregon strands bases-loaded. Mr. FishDuck
2 hours ago2 hr Author Administrator No. 8-6 Nebraska after five innings. I have no idea why...but they brought Collin Clarke back out--who gave up two more runs before being replaced by Michael Meckna.RS freshman Naulivou Lauaki Jr. is replacing Dominic Hellman as DH for Oregon...and continues to earn it as he blasted a solo HR over CF. Mr. FishDuck
1 hour ago1 hr Author Administrator No. 8-6 Nebraska after six innings. Oregon's Michael Meckna gave up a walk and hit, but kept them scoreless in this inning.Ducks strand two on base... Mr. FishDuck
1 hour ago1 hr No. Why would Coach 'Was' keep Clarke in the game when he was being pummeled. He's got 23 pitchers on the roster. The way I read this is that he is not confident in his relievers. Not a good look.
1 hour ago1 hr Author Administrator No. 8-7 Nebraska after seven innings. Toby Twist came in to relieve for Oregon, and kept them scoreless for the inning.RS freshman Naulivou Lauaki Jr. continues to amaze with another solo homer over CF! Mr. FishDuck
1 hour ago1 hr Author Administrator No. 10-7 Nebraska after eight innings. Toby Twist was doing fine...until he gave up a two-run homer. Luke Morgan came in to finish the side...On offense...nothing when we needed it. Mr. FishDuck
47 minutes ago47 min Author Administrator No. Nebraska wins 10-8 after Luke Morgan kept them scoreless in the 9th. Maddox Molony hit a line drive for a hit, and Burke-Lee Mabeus nailed a pitch to the wall to score Molony...but that was it. Mr. FishDuck
31 minutes ago31 min No. Unfortunately, the Ducks 'Achilles Heel' is their pitching. Besides that, they have a solid team.
