Nebraska Sweeps Wisconsin With 12–2 Run-Rule Finale

The sweep lifts Nebraska to 33-6 overall with a 14-1 Big Ten mark.

Overview

  • The 12-2 win in five innings Sunday capped a three-game road sweep in Madison and strengthened Nebraska’s Big Ten lead.
  • Jordy Frahm crushed a fifth-inning grand slam and Ava Kuszak homered twice as the Huskers piled up 10 hits and 11 RBIs in the finale.
  • Alexis Jensen earned Sunday’s win with four innings and three strikeouts before Frahm closed the fifth to seal the run-rule.
  • Nebraska set up the sweep with back-to-back shutouts, as Jensen spun a two-hit, 10-strikeout gem in Friday’s 5-0 opener and Frahm fired a two-hit, no-walk blanking Saturday.
  • It marked Nebraska’s fourth Big Ten series sweep this season, and the Huskers visit Minnesota next, with Friday’s opener set for B1G+.
