Jordy Frahm pitched a dominant five-inning complete game, allowing just four hits and striking out nine while walking none. The Huskers capitalized on Rutgers' mistakes, drawing five walks and taking advantage of three errors to plate eight runs.
Sammie Bland added two RBIs, including one after being plunked with the bases loaded. With the victory, the Huskers solidified their position in the conference, and the team is set to face Rutgers again in the second game shortly.
