Nebraska baseball finally captured its first series victory in a Big Ten matchup last weekend and followed it up with a big-time midweek upset win on the road.

The Huskers (15-18, 4-8 Big Ten) have now won three of their last four after going 2-1 at home vs. Rutgers and then taking down No. 22 Kansas on Tuesday.
