The Fighting Erstad's vs. The Gophers of Minnesota

Sang strikeout. Strikeout the side to end the game. Minnesota wins 4-3. Nebraska got screwed by the strike zone in the top of the ninth.
Badly. Forced bad swings with pitches a half-foot off the plate being called strikes.
I know, but Nebraska made too many mistakes (not getting the bunt down in the first, the base running error by Pritchard, etc) and shouldn't allowed it to come down to the 9th.

The pitches to the backstop (whether wild or passed), also. But a fair shake in the 9th shouldn't have been too much to ask, either; they might have had a shot to redeem themselves.

 
I won't be able to post updates for the next game as I will be playing a game myself. Looking for the first win after an opening game loss of 8-7 in extra innings for the first game. Damn California rule.
