New York Yankee manager Ycgi Ecrra used to
say "It ain't over 'till it's over."
Tuesday at Buck Eeltzer Field Nebraska base
ball coach John Sanders put that philosophy into
practice as his Ccmhuskers rode the strength of
a cranatic eight run rally to defect Minnesota
18-17.
"We showed the same type of poise we have
shovn aU season," Sanders s?id about hij team's
dramatic rally. "We just never quit."
The Golden Gophers' P&t Pohl started the
contest that featured a total of 35 rims, 28 hits,
and 52 baserunners.
Nebraska, however, quickly recovered from
PoM's shot which easily cleared the 330-foot
risht field wall as they sent no fewer than 1 1 men
to the plate in the bottom of the inning, enroute
to scoring six unanswered runs on only four hits.
EightSelder Jeff Carter sparked the explosion by
drawing a leadcff walk off Minnesota's Darren
Knight, who was roughed up for seven runs on six
hits and four walks in l's innings cf work. Garter
then stole second base the ninety-first swipe
of his career which sets a new Comhysker
ard NCAA record.
The Golden Gophers, however, weren't fin
ished as they rallied from an early 10-3 deficit
that Nebraska had built by collecting a single
run in the second inning followed by three more
in the third to score six unanswered runs
freshman John Lepley, vho had entered the
game in the fifth in relief cf Dolls, to tie the
eecr at 10-10.
Things continued to get worse for the crn
hsskers es Minnesota oi2sded the Hiker's Bill
iMii'n for seven mm runs oa eit hits sM
-ihrsa walks esrouie to'UHzs a cczsndlrj
17-10 lead aer tlx and tm-hrJ! innings.
In the bottom cf the seventh, however, Ne
braska sent 13 men to the plate enroute to
tcczisg efght rur.3 in the kst inning.
"Seeing Nebraska score eight ruo in their
list at bris rssir did hurt m mentally," Unse
ed coach John Andersen ssid, "Bui this ttani
shewed good moral jast like they have all wm
in bouncing back."
