Since then we are 4-2 and won our first series this weekend. Hitting has been the bright spot, but when you dive into the pitching #s they are significantly better than what they show. First we have given up 67 earned runs this season, but 23 of those came in the first two games of the season. That is 44 runs in 8 games... which isn't good, but that drops our ERA from 7.12 to 5.5... again still not good, but huge difference. Then if you throw out Stanford (Top 5 team and miles ahead of us in practice time and what not).... our ERA sits at 4.42.... and that is basically where we have been since the first two games at Clemson, outside of the Stanford game. This weekend we gave up 16 earned runs, but 7 of those came in one inning and that's the only reason this wasn't a three game sweep. We dominated the other 26 innings at a score of 29-9 out of that one inning. We have absolutely seen improvement and we have seen back to back well pitched games from the Hoosiers to end the most recent series. Having said all that, no relapses and Sharp, Bothwell, Mudugno, and Stahl need to wake tf up, but we are "okay". Those 4 have thrown too many innings at this level to be struggling the way they are. Stahl didn't pitch this weekend... and Mudugno was really good expect for that previously mentioned inning... but Sharp and Bothwell still looked shaky. TY for the breakdown. Hopefully we get a head of steam going so I can "puff out my chest" on "The RedsZone" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren't making a run this year, but we are recruiting at a HIGH rate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steubenhoosier Posted April 5, 2022 Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 My God, what has happened to IU baseball? Watched part of the Northwestern game Sunday and it was a debacle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btownqb Posted April 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 Yeah, pitching has sucked. We basically have 4 arms we can trust. Perkins, Brehmer, Holderfield, and Tucker. Kraft a little bit. Everyone else has been a disaster. We are 3-2 in our last 5. Need a W tonight and 2 of three against Purdue this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping we can bounce back next year. I'm ready to pull the plug on this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btownqb Posted April 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 Omg lol what a comeback. Down 5-1 B9 2 outs. Jesse singles, Mathison 3 run bomb, Doanes solo. Up 6-5 Tucker shuts them down in the B9. Hoosiers win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btownqb Posted April 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 Also... IN ST is darn good. They had a series win over Memphis and ILL ST and were at home and 19-8 coming in. For sure they gave it to us, but 🤷♂️ hate that for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
