Spartan Baseball Series Preview: Northwestern

Big Ten action is back after a one game stint vs. the Toledo Rockets. Michigan State handled them with ease on their way to a 11-1 rout. It put the Spartans at 21-16 for the year but unfortunately doesn’t help their case as far as the B1G is concerned.

Next up on the Spartans schedule is Northwestern. The Wildcats will host Michigan State for a three game series starting later on today.

Before first pitch takes place let’s get to know those pesky Northwestern Wildcats.

  • Record: 16-23 (5-7 conference, 8-10 Home)
  • Best Win: vs Iowa (RPI: 102), W 6-5
  • Worst Loss: vs Portland (RPI: 280), L 2-5
  • 4/22 — Penn State, W 7-4
  • 4/21 — Penn State, W 12-5
  • 4/18 — Milwaukee, W 6-4
  • 4/16 — Illinois, L 8-10

Like the Spartans, Northwestern is also in the bottom half of the conference.
