The life was sucked out of Baylor Ballpark three at-bats into the game.

No. 22 Indiana held off Baylor baseball 8-4 on Friday night, but a hush fell over the crowd when senior outfielder Hunter Simmons had to be carted off the diamond after slamming into the left-field wall in the top of the first inning.

Simmons came crashing down on his lower leg and never returned.

“It’s a major injury, and it hurts to see one of your teammates go down like that,” Bears head coach Mitch Thompson said.
