Game 3: IU 6 San Diego 5 final as IU splits the doubleheader..

[ptrich]

USD has outhit IU so far, 5 to 2. All of the runs scored in this game so far have been earned. Sommer is on the mound for IU.

Okay, they pulled Sommer for Hobbie in the 5th, and he is having an awful inning. He's still looking to get his first out and has given up four hits including a homer which has led to two runs so far.

The leadoff double cost us a run, so we are back to being three down while batting in the top of the 7th.

A clutch two-out triple by Kaletha scores two runs. Unfortunately, we couldn't get him in from third to tie it. We still have two innings to get the job done.

Krueger closes it out. Kaletha had a big game with three hits and four RBIs.

Great 9th inning, huge win for the Hoosiers.

Great 9th inning, huge win for the Hoosiers.

Love the competitiveness of this team. It's not easy to come back on the road against a strong team like San Diego. IU did a great job in the ninth inning of both games, obviously.

Krueger closes it out. Kaletha had a big game with three hits and four RBIs.

What were Krueger's stats in the bottom of the ninth?

Austin Long, B.J. Sabol and Cal Krueger pitched shutout ball over the last four innings. Hobbie really had a bad inning in his short appearance. For whatever reason, I've had this mental hangup with Hobbie's name in that I want to put just one "b" in it and I did it a couple of times yesterday. I did the same last season.

Could the mental hangup be due to Hobie Billingsley?
