LINCOLN, Neb. (Interstat) — The Nebraska Cornhuskers will look to build on a winning streak and dampen the spirits of a struggling Michigan State squad when the Big Ten foes continue their series Saturday at Haymarket Park.

First pitch is scheduled for the evening, though forecasts call for rain and a temperature near 68 degrees, which could impact the contest.

Nebraska (7-5) enters having won its last two games, including a 5-4 victory over South Dakota State on Wednesday. The Cornhuskers’ offense has been sparked by shortstop Dylan Carey, who is riding a hot streak. In his last five games, Carey is 13 for 22 (.591) with 10 RBIs, including a perfect 5-for-5 performance with two RBIs in the midweek win.

Michigan State (3-8) seeks to end a four-game skid after a 12-1 loss at Clemson on Wednesday and a series-opening defeat to Nebraska on Friday. The Spartans have been held to two runs or fewer in six of their eight losses this season.

A player to watch for the Spartans is pitcher Brady Chambers. In his last three appearances spanning eight innings, Chambers has allowed just one earned run on one hit while striking out five. His effectiveness out of the bullpen could be crucial against a surging Nebraska lineup.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a 5-2 victory for Nebraska.

The series concludes Sunday afternoon at Haymarket Park.
