Miller with an RBI single.

IU 2-0

[Aaron 4,580]

3-0 he should not of swung. We got the run but force him to throw a strike without conceding the out. That's definitely a take 2 pitches no matter what.

We agree. This is the time we criticize Lemonis for poor execution with swing decision. Also Dedelow as usual swings for fences and just misses but sac fly.

In end we got 3 though which is solid.

[Aaron 4,580]

God everyone missing home runs by inches right now.

What a double play!

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Butler leads off the 5th with a double and Lloyd with an RBI single!

IU 4-0

[Aaron 4,580]

These announcers are just dumb acting surprise that it is mostly our fans in the stands. It is our stadium which they have rememebered at times but forgotten at others clearly. At least they are on site as oppose to regular season when they call games from studio in Chicago.

Great double than single for another run!

[Aaron 4,580]

We were meat at the plate till catcher dropped ball for Minny on throw home! 5-0. One of the few times Dedelow just made solid contact for a single instead of swinging for fences.

Is Saalfrank tiring?  Didn't seem as sharp in the 4th and now give up a leadoff walk in the 5th.  

[Aaron 4,580]

Fineman has never developed into the hitter he should be but a much better defensive catcher than Schwarber was. Constantly throws out runners!

I think he's ok for a bit. Nice pick at 2nd for Fineman!

[Aaron 4,580]

Honestly Saalfrank did everything you would hope and more giving us 5 shutout innings. He's gotten better as season goes on and could be our 3rd starter or at least regular weekday guy next year.

John Anderson is mad in his interview and sounds out of answers. In all seriousness he is the last of the longtime coaches in conference and has won consistenently (OSU, Minny and Mich have by far best overall history of Big Ten team). IU has been best team last decade in conference but were terrible every previous decade till then so its really been quite the turnaround.

[Aaron 4,580]

Another replay but I think thats a HR. I wasn't even aware they used replay till this year but it should benefit us this time.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Boom! Houston with a 2 out solo shot!

IU 6-0, T6

[Aaron 4,580]

Damn camera platform or it would of bounced off top of wall and out and been no question instead of hitting off camera and coming back in but the replay let them get it right!

[Class of '66 Old Fart 93,059]

Multiple tweets that Houston hadn't  homered since he was 14 years old and and has now hit 2 this year.

[Aaron 4,580]

OK I think that's enough for Saalfrank.
