It was way too easy for Pitt to get into the box. Their passing / offense has been a thing of beauty. IU better wake up in the 2nd half. You can’t keep allowing the assault on your goalie without putting any pressure on their goalie. Somehow you gotta get Bezerra a touch. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

IU really shaky. Passing has been poor. IU very reactive. Pitt much more aggressive. Still 0-0. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Disappointing pitching day. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Make that 3 hits in a row. 6-2 game now. Geez. Just a crap inning Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

One pitch. Another base hit. Ugh. 4-2. Michigan finding open spaces. Hard hit balls. So far Braden scott. Two pitches. Two hits . 2 runs. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Braden scott comes in. Gives up single on one pitch. IU now down 3-2. Still bases loaded. Still one out. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

a base hit follows. 2-2. Still bases loaded. Only one out. Mercer may be pulling him. Cant afford to get behind too much here. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Sommer walks bases loaded. One out. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

2 on 1 out for Michigan. Mercer out for a chat. Keeps Sommer in Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Michigan with a long HR. 1-0 Michigan. Still bottom of 2 Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Seton Hall was really dialed in on offense and defensively gave IU only 2 chances but to IU’s credit, they finished them. IU will need to be much better on offense against a Pitt team that was number 1 going into their conference tournament. Nyk Sessock going up against his old team should be an interesting storyline. Hopefully the weather will be descent. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

IU loses bottom of the 9th. A walk and an excuse me bunt. With infield in, Perfectly placed ball does it. Tough loss. IU didnt play very well. They were outhit and committed 5 errors. Got another chance at them tomorrow. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

IU now down 6-5. Mercer rolled the dice w Tucker twice today. Both times, it didn’t work. Gave up runs both games. . Now IU has to come back again. Should have never pulled Stahl. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Could have gone w Reese sharp or someone else used yesterday. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Stahl was great. So of course Mercer pulls him. Brings in Tucker who immediately walks a guy and then throws a bad error toss to 1st. Mercer makes no fricken sense here. There’s guys who hadn’t already pitched today in game 1. Another base hit. Game now tied. Good grief. 1st & 3rd no outs. Appears Mercer sticking w him. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Fucci goes deep. It’s about time we saw him. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Mercer not using his closer. Just beyond stupid Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Brown Gets out of the inning w a DP. Iu down 1-0. Top of 8th Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Brown walks 2 in a row. When he has something bad happen, he kind of loses focus. Manager keeps him in. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Did Fucci transfer during the season or something? Fougereesse has zero confidence in about the last 4 series. There’s got to be someone on the bench who you can at least try. Then of course Brown gives up a long HR. And walks next guy. Geez Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

IU piles it on to win going away 8-3. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Big base hit by Hopkins to score 2 top of the 8th 4-2 IU. Hopkins on 2nd w no outs. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Never seen so many yellow cards in a game. IU turned it up in the 2nd half. Great finishes in close by Endeley & Goumballe. Celentano with some nice D in the end. Hoosiers move on. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

They’ve had some opportunities but mArquette tightened their D up when necessary. IU had a great opportunity. Pallazolo pulled down. Refs miss it. MArquette goes down and shoots long shot that connects top left. Perfect placement. IU’s D susceptible to a few long runs today. Got burned on one of them. IU was much better with Wittenbrink. Very active. Ward didn’t do anything up top. IU needs the equalizer. Cant settle just pushing it back all the time. Needs to be aggressive. MArquette just wants to protect the lead.

Is that 3x IU players pick off base? That shouldn’t happen that often Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
