9-5 Plainsmen Win over Cauldrons Evens Season Record
Nebraska starter Sam Groves pitched effectively against the Hogsmeade Cauldrons at Plain Old Stadium. The right-hander led his team to a 9-5 win. The winning pitcher was Groves, now 4-3. He tossed 6 innings of 1-hit ball, while walking 5 and fanning 9. Nebraska occupies 5th place in the Premier A at 20-20.

In the bottom of the third, Ralph Cranford hit a 3-run home run for Nebraska. The 4th home run of the season for the Nebraska center fielder put the Plainsmen on top, 3-0.

In comments to the Nebraska Citizen, Groves admitted that he doesn't always push himself. "But the results," he said, "speak for themselves."
