Boom! Sowers with his 3rd dinger of the game. Much better today.

IU 11-2, T8

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Hoosiers win 11-2! We play the loser of Kentucky/NC State tomorrow @ 1 pm ET.

Boy did we need that.  Who'd thunk Stiever would throw a complete game after his first inning woes.  Fantastic how he was able to settle down and keep Ohio under his control.  And it was also nice to see the bats come alive.  After his poor showing at the B1G tournament Sowers has been spectacular at the plate.  Still alive and kickin'.  Go Hoosiers!

That was much needed. Obviously the game but also giving the bullpen a rest. Gonna need it for tomorrow with a possible two games

Nice! Glad to see this. My kids team is getting clobbered this season. Lost 18-16 yesterday and 6-3 today.

I'm still totally loving that we got this guy right from PU's backyard. ... Hope we can do the same in hoops with Phinisee!

I literally have not seen a second of the games this weekend as I have been on a family outing which is my reason for not posting (I followed for a few min on twitter). Sounds like a disappointing game last night and a good win today. May be able to catch a bit tomorrow. Either way while this is not what I completely on board with for future (I.E. poor in game coaching and player development) this season has met my expectations despite the up and downs.

We play Kentucky tomorrow @ 1 pm ET. Winner plays NC State @ 7 pm ET.

I'd be just fine with knocking Kentucky out of the tournament. At their own regional nonetheless. If IU can win this game, it's not out of the realm of possibility they could somehow win this regional. I would definitely take my chances with NC State. But that's for hopefully later. Have to take out Kentucky first

If we play NC State today I like our chances to win. The feeling the other night at the park was IU was the better team. I'm not sure we can win four in a row. One game and one win at a time. HOO HOO HOO

We are the home team today and facing the same pitcher we did about a month ago in a 5-2 loss.

Boxscore

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Krueger (5-1, 2.35) on the bump for us.

Don't they have to toss a coin with all things equal? 

First tiebreaker is who has been home most which is equal. Second tiebreak is who had home field last time teams played in regional (they have not played). Third is who was road team in their last game (we both were). With all those things equal it goes to a coin flip I am pretty sure (unless they already did it and IU won it but I thought they do it right before first pitch).

They did yesterday and we won.

They tossed a coin yesterday and we won? Classic NCAA. Just do it pregame.
