Road Mapping Nebraska Baseball’s 2018 Season

Is this the year Nebraska does better in the postseason?

When Darin Erstad took over the Nebraska Baseball program, the Huskers were on a clear downward trajectory. Now, Nebraska has made it to a NCAA Regional in three of the past four seasons. What should we expect from a team that won the Big Ten last season, but went out with a dud in the postseason, combining to go just 1-4?

Starting with the opening part of the season, expect a different approach. Husker hitters struck out 433 times, while homering just 25 times. Doing the math, the Huskers struck out 17.32 times for every home run hit. Take out the power of Scott Schreiber, the number moves to 21.61 times for every home run hit.

Opponents of Nebraska hit 28 home runs while striking out just 386 times, an average of 13.78 strikeouts per every home run hit.
