Omaha, Neb. – Andrew Brown’s eighth-inning double broke a 10-all tie, as the Nebraska baseball team held on for a wild 12-10 victory over Creighton Tuesday evening at Rosenblatt Stadium.

Brown, who went 2-for-4 with pair of doubles and two RBIs, gave Nebraska (17-11) the lead for good, sending a 1-2 pitch from Creighton closer Andy Masten into left, scoring Ryan Wehrle with the go-ahead run. Nebraska, which has won six straight games against the Bluejays, then extended its lead to 12-10 moments later on Jake Opitz’s RBI single.

The two runs were enough, as Thad Weber struck out a career-high four Bluejays over 2.1 innings of relief for his first career win. Weber (1-0) got the Huskers out of a sixth-inning, bases-loaded jam and allowed one unearned run on one hit in getting the Huskers to the ninth.

Creighton (18-9), which overcame a 9-0 deficit, made one last rally in the ninth and loaded the bases with a single, a walk and a hit batter before closer Steve Edlefsen got Steve Winklemann to ground out to end the game and collect his fourth save. Winklemann hit a hard shot to third baseman Jake Mort, who made a diving stop to his right and gunned the runner out at first for the final out.

The two teams combined for 22 runs, 28 hits and nine errors on a night where temperatures hovered in the upper 20s at the end of the game with wind chills. Six different Huskers had two hits, including Brown who scored three times, and Andy Gerch who also drove in a pair of runs.

Masten, the sixth pitcher used by the Bluejays, took the loss, allowing two runs on four hits over 2.2 innings, as Creighton saw its six-game win streak snapped.

Chris Gradoville drove in four runs for Creighton, including a three-run homer, while Darin Ruff enjoyed a 3-for-5 evening, as both teams finished with 14 hits.

The Huskers will return to action on Friday afternoon, as they take on Oklahoma State beginning at 2 p.m. The game will be carried on the Husker Sports Network and on Huskes.com.
