Nebraska's Mims (left) and Bunge watch as a hit falls between them for a single in Saturday's
first game with Oklahoma State.
Huskers stop OSU's streak;
split four-game series
By Jeff Apel
Senior Reporter
Nebraska's baseball team didn't gain
anything, but they didn't lose anything
in splitting a four-game series wit h Big
Eight opponent Oklahoma State last
weekend.
The Huskers split double headers
Sat urday (6-2, 6-1 0) and Sunday (12-11,
8-15).
In Sunday's first game, the Huskers
used the combination of a late-inning
homerun by Rich King and game-winning
run by John Franklin off a bases
loaded walk to post the victory. In t he
second game, Oklahoma State jumped
on Nebraska pitcher Kip Gross for six
runs in the first inning and eased to
victory.
On Saturday, The Huskers Phil Har
rison snapped the Cowboy's 30 game
winning streak when he struck out a
season-high 15 Cowboys. In the second
game Oklahoma State broke open a
scoreless contest scorht 9 of the 10
runs in the fourth and fifth innings.
The Huskers were eliminated from
the Big Eight conference title race
because of two losses to Oklahoma
State and conference leader Oklaho
ma's four-game sweep of Missouri. But
Nebraska baseball coach John Sanders
said he was happy with the Corn
husker's performance in the weekend
series.
"The games were stretched to the
limit," Sanders said. "You're looking at
a ball club who had a 30 game winning
streak and we took that away from
them. That's important."
Sanders said Nebraska's pair of vic
tories over the No. 7 Cowboys is partic
ularly important as Nebraska heads
into a weekend series against Missouri.
For the Huskers to finish second in
the Big Eight, Nebraska must sweep
the Tigers and Oklahoma State lose
three of four games to Iowa State, or
Nebraska take three of four games from
the Tigers and the Cowboys drop four
games to the Cyclones.
Midwest artists show
paintings atSheldon
"Heartland Painters," an exhibi
tion of contemporary Midwestern
landscape paintings, will be on view
at Sheldon Art Gallery through June
22.
Organized by Frumkin & Struve
Gallery of Chicago, the exhibition
features the work of three artists:
James Butler, Keith Jacobshagen
and James Winn, all of whom were
born in the Midwest, where they
continue to live and work.
Of the three artists featured in
"Heartland Painters," two have
strong ties to Nebraska. Butler, who
works in Bloomington, 111., received
his master's degree of fine arts from
UNLin 1970. Jacobshagen, a Kansas
native, is a professor of art at UNL.
James Winn was born in Missouri
and now works in Sycamore, 111.
Gallery hours are noon to 5 p.m.
Tuesday through Saturday, 2 to 9
p.m. Sunday, and 7 to 9 p.m. Thurs
day through Saturday. Admission is
free.
"The Big Eight is becoming a short
season for us," Sanders said.
On Sunday, Nebraska took the first
step toward the Big Eight tournament
with a 12-11 win over the Cowboys.
Nebraska jumped an 8-0 lead tagging
Cowboy starting pitcher Jimmy Long
for eight runs in three innings.
But a potent offense and relief pitch
ing by Steve Lienhard helped Okla
homa State rally to an 1 1-10 lead going
into the bottom of tlte ninth.
A homerun by King in the last of the
ninth then tied the game at 11-1 1. In
the bottom of the 12th, Nebraska's
John Franklin drew a bases-loaded
walk off the Cowboy's Gordie Dillard
for the Husker victory.
Franklin was familiar with Dillard
since the two athletes were both at
Hartnell Community College in Carmel,
Calif. Sanders said t hat he chose Frank
lin as a pinch hitter for defensive
purposes.
"We pride ourselves on playing inning
by inning," he said.
In Sunday's second game, the 43-12
Cowboys took an early 6-0 lead to 1 2-2
in the fourth inning when Brad Piobin
son hit a grand slam off John Lepley.
Nebraska cut Oklahoma State's lead
to 12-6 with four runs in the bottom of
the sixth, but the Cowboys took a pair
of runs in both the sixth and seventh
innings.
"You can see the difference in atti
tude when you are in the front side,"
Oklahoma State coach Gary Ward said.
On Saturday, Harrison became Nebras
ka's single season, strike out leader
when his fifteen Cowboy strikeouts
gave him 92 for the season.
That mark was good enough to pass
former Husker pitcher Bob Sebra, who
recorded 90 strike outs in the 1981
season.
