End of 3 and no score.  Neither team with a base hit.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,775]

Middle of the 6th and we're down 1-0 and only have 1 hit.  Maryland has 4 hits but 3 have been for extra bases.  Milto still on the mound.

Maryland with another run in the bottom of the 6th and they lead 2-0.

Manous relieved Milto in the bottom of the 7th with runners on 1st and 2nd but gets us out of the inning.  At the end of 7, IU trailing 2-0 and only has 2 hits.

Hoosiers go down 2-0 and we'll try again tomorrow.

I have a super busy weekend so I did not see or hear any of the game tonight nor will I see any of the games this weekend so no normal updates from me. 

With that said IU seems to have a good and bad team that can show up and today was the bad one losing 2-0 to a struggling Maryland team. It appears pitching was really good but when you get shutout on 2 hits you have no chance.

Not thrilled with the job Mercer has done so far.

A 3-1 record in the big ten and poised to be a 2 or 3 seed in the postseason?  In his first year?

IU 13-1 after 4, lay down your pitchforks

[LIHoosier 26,206]

Now 17-1 in the 5th, save some runs for tomorrow

[LIHoosier 26,206]

18-1 IU, 7 HR's in the game...maybe we've gone back to the old aluminum bats.

Maryland pitching BP? They know it’s a real game and not a scrimmage right?

Like I said unable to watch again but nice to see good IU showed up today. Best part is Tanner Gordon really cementing himself as a strong number 2 starter and Richardson obviously looking like the next big thing.

1:00 first pitch

Good way to start a game.  Gorski legs out an infield hit to lead off and then steals second.  Ashley draws a walk and then both runners advance on a deep fly to center by Lloyd.  Elijah Dunham singles up the middle scoring Gorski for a 1-0 lead.  Cole Barr with a SF brings in Ashley for a 2-0 lead after a half an inning.

Well the euphoria didn't last long.  Maryland leadoff hitter gets a first pitch homer off Saalfrank.
