Rough first inning for Saalfrank.  Hit 2 batters and got out of a bases loaded situation only giving up the 1 run.  But we got that run back in the bottom of the 1st on a solo shot by Dedelow.

And 1 inning is all Saalfrank gets as Cameron Beauchamp starts the 2nd on the mound.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 80,940]

ISU picks up 4 more runs in the 2nd and lead 5-1.  Saalfrank only lasted 1 inning and Beauchamp only lasted for 2 outs in the 2nd before he was lifted after throwing 26 pitches and giving up 4 runs.  Luke Stephenson now on the mound - third pitcher in 2 innings - UGH.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 80,940]

End of 2; ISU leads 5-1.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 80,940]

2 more runs for ISU in the top of the 4th and the lead is up to 7-1 going into the bottom half of the 4th.  Austin Foote warming up and likely takes the mound in the 5th.

End of 4 and ISU leads 7-1.  Stephenson stays on the mound.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 80,940]

End of 5 and ISU still leads 7-1.  Hoosiers have only managed to get 2 hits.  Austin Foote takes the mound for IU in the 6th.  Stephenson with a 57 pitch outing.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 80,940]

Hoosiers can't do a thing with the bats tonight and trail 7-1 after 6 innings.  Foote stays on the mound.

End of 7; score still 7-1.

Wow. I picked a good day to head out of town for some house hunting. Thanks for manning the fort OF!

[Class of '66 Old Fart 80,940]

Well, we picked up 2 hits and had runners on 2nd and 3rd in the 8th but couldn't score.  End of 8 and score is still 7-1.  We haven't even been making contact with our bats as many of our outs have been via strikeout.

Next up is a 3-game weekend home series with Nebraska.  Friday game at 7:05; Sat. at 2:05 and Sun. at 12:05.

And you see what happens when you leave it in inept hands.   This game was over early.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 80,940]

Final score 7-3.  Miler with a 2-run homer in the bottom of the 9th to make the score a little more palatable.  ISU pitching was just too much for our Hoosiers.  Beauchamp takes the loss in second inning relief of Saalfrank who hit 2 batters and bounced balls to the plate in his one inning on the mound.  Re-group for the weekend series.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 80,940]

I looked at the box score this morning and we struck out 13 times in last night's game.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Indiana travels to Terre Haute on Tuesday for a midweek contest with Indiana State at 6 p.m. This will be the second matchup between the two squads this season, as the Sycamores took the first contest by a score of 7-3 on March 29 in Bloomington. LHP Tim Herrin (3-2, 4.64) on the bump.

Current RPI: IU 47 (16-13-2); ISU 172 (15-13)

We got our second victory in a row with a 2-0 win over ISU.  Saalfrank with 2 strong innings of relief in the 6th and 7th and Foote took care of the 8th and 9th.  Beauchamp got the W.  Hoosiers only managed 5 hits but made them count scoring both runs in the top of the 5th.  Next up is a 3-game Easter weekend home stand against Minnesota.

Looks like the anemic batting woes continue. At least they got the W!

I know there has been discussion about Lemonis and maybe that's valid but at the same time he can't get them hits.

At least tonight our bullpen didn't let us down.
