@IndianaBase: Andrew Saalfrank is our first All-American pitcher since Joey DeNato in 2014.

Totally expected, but Louisville is holding back their ace Detmers back until Saturday so if we win we get two aces in a row most likely. It's to bad for IU if they win tomorrow, but absolutely the right move by Louisville. IU did the same in 2014 holding DeNato back until game two against Stanford and it worked really well in first two games (then it went south). By being a one seed you get that option playing a terrible four seed. Basically the 1 vs 4 game is a 1-16 or 2-15 in Basketball terms while a 2 vs 3 is a 7-10 or 8-9 game so its all hands on deck.

I will be in Louisville all weekend at games so will post recap but no in game updates.

[mamasa 15,123]

2-2 top of 2nd

[ThompsonHoosier 3,414]

Milto not fooling anyone early on...

[mamasa 15,123]

3-2 'birds

[mamasa 15,123]

Yeah,...... 4-2

[Naturalhoosier 15,407]

Our pitcher is getting drilled. Yeeeesh. 

[Naturalhoosier 15,407]

18 at bats. 10 hits. It'll be a long day for IU at this rate. 

[Brass Cannon 24,211]

Milto hasn’t deserved to be our Friday starter for quite some time

[mjhoosier 93]

Not sure why Mercer has chosen to stick w Milto when saalfrank has been his best pitcher for the last 3 months. Wish he would have started him against Iowa in BTT

Did this team just pack it in after the regular season? ... We need to wake the eff up! 

[mjhoosier 93]

Now5-2. Milto has given up 14 hits. IU has struck out 13x

Team seems to have loSt its mojo after the Big 10 regular season.

Hard to win a baseball game when you have no hitting and poor pitching

[mjhoosier 93]

Yeah. Milto faces 29 guys. Gives up 14 hits. That’s not going to get it done. IU with only 1 hit with 13Ks.

Well this is certainly one way to avoid the Louisville Ace
