KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Things went from bad to worse in just a matter of hours for Indiana's baseball team on Sunday in the NCAA Tournament regional. A second-straight brutal pitching performance led to an ugly 15-3 loss to Southern Miss, ending the Hoosiers' up-and-down injury plagued season.
The Hoosiers finished the season with a 33-26-1 record, and dealt with dozens of injuries throughout hte season. They really weren't an NCAA Tournament team until the final month or so. And after beating Southern Miss 10-4 on Friday, things completely fell apart from there. They allowed 11 walks and two hit batters in a 12-6 loss to Tennessee on Saturday, and were just as bad with allowing free passes on Sunday.
Brandon Keyster pitched five innings of one-run ball for Indiana, but it was too little, too late. The Hoosiers only scored three runs, getting a solo home run from Devin Taylor in the fifth and a two-run shot from Jasen Oliver in the ninth. Pitcher Ty Bothwell has done a lot of good things for Indiana baseball the past six years, but no moment could have topped Friday, when he won a game for the Hoosiers — and proposed to his girlfriend on the field after the game. Here's a great baseball love story for two Northwest Indiana kids.
