Waco, TX - The Huskers (31-7-1, 14-4-1) haven’t had very much luck in Waco for a long time. Before today the Huskers were an abysmal 1-12 in Waco, easily their worst record at any Big XII destination. The first game threatened to continue that aweful trend, when Baylor hit a dramatic 2-run home run of reliever Dan Jennings to tie the game with 1 out in the bottom of the 9th. However, DJ Belfonte knocked in 2 go ahead runs for the 2nd time late in the game for the 6-4 win in the first half of the double header.
In an all to common trend, Johnny Dorn was excellent, but still failed to get the decision. He pitched 7 innings, gave up just 4 hits and walked 3 while striking out 7. He allowed 2 runs to score, both in the Baylor 5th, the only inning where he seem to face any trouble. Dorn was in position to earn the win, when DJ Belfonte knocked in two runs in the 8th just before Dorn was lifted.
The Huskers took the early lead in the 2nd inning when Craig Corriston launched a 3-1 pitch over the left field wall. After the Bears took the 2-1 lead in the 5th, Corriston singled home a run to tie it up again.
After the dramatic comeback in the 9th by the Bears, DJ Belfonte did it again, grounding a single up the middle in the 10th scoring Jake Opitz and Nick Sullivan for the final advantage.
Mike Nesseth earned the win, who came in to relieve Dan Jennings in the 9th and Zach Herr earned his 4th save allowing just 1 hit in the 10th.
The Huskers and Bears finish up the double header in the nightcap as the Huskers try to get their first ever series win in Waco.
