Milto does give up a single, but ends up striking out the side. Going T7 still 6-1 Hoosiers.

 

[hoosierhero?2993]

Lloyd doubles to lead off the 7th and advances to third on a Gorski flyout. He's stranded there as Fineman grounds out and Sowers lines out. Time to stretch. Going B7 with the Hoosiers up 6-1.

Milto touched up for a run. Sabol comes in to replace him with a man on third and two outs and gets the K. Going T8, 6-2 Hoosiers.

After dogging the team for awhile, I guess I have to give a shoutout for playing a pretty good game. It seems like forever that we have played a game like this, and let's hope things will revert back to the way we were playing before our slump. Having Milto back in the starting rotation has to be a big lift for the team, and I know it is for me. Fortunately, that gift HR off Sowers' glove had no impact on the final score. That was nothing but just bad luck.

That was a really good win with contributions from multiple players. Ashley with another oppo dinger, and back to back HRs from Miller and Bradley. Great to see Milto return to form. I sure hope Kaletha breaks out of it soon at the plate. That would go a long way towards a turnaround heading into tournament play. He made an awesome running grab in LC today. Get the series win tomorrow, and a win in Louisville next week would feel good.

You're right. If we can take the series and then get a win against Louisville, as well as finishing out the regular season with a big series against Maryland, it will go a long ways toward going into the tournament with a lot of momentum, something I wasn't real sure of lately. IMO, the tournament this year is wide-open, so I don't think it matters what our seed will be going into it. There's not a team in it that we can't handle as long as we stay away from the mental mistakes that have been killing us of late.
