Hoosiers get out of the jam!

Nathan Stahl comes into relieve Tommy Sommer with two outs in the top of the 5th inning and gets Piacentino to strike out looking. PSU strands 3 on base

I was concentrating on and watching regional basketball action while keeping an eye on the game. It looks like Stahl had another good outing coming out of the bullpen.
 
Game 2 is underway. I will be providing updates throughout the game, similar to the first game.
