That strategy caught up to him in Tuesday night’s game against Nebraska-Omaha — a pitch hit the junior for the 20th time this season, tying an Iowa baseball sea- son record set by Kevin Hoef in 2008. “It’s always been a part of my ap- proach to just compete out there in any way I can,” Brand said. “I really wasn’t worried about it. Just was kind of taking it game by game, but once I started get- ting up there, I started to realize I was close to the record.” The record doesn’t just lead the Hawk- eye team, it leads the Big Ten as well. Nebraska’s Kash Kalkowski sits second in that category with 18 hits-by-pitch. Brand was plunked in the bottom of the fourth-inning by Maverick pitch- er Marcus Ethen.
