After winning its opening series of the season, Butler baseball lost both of its games in the Allstate Sugar Bowl Baseball Classic in New Orleans.

Both games were tough pills for the team to swallow as the Bulldogs drop to 2-3 on the young season.

On Feb. 22, the Bulldogs squared off against Rutgers out of the Big Ten.

The runs would come early for Butler as Zach Jarosz and Kyle Smith scored to give Butler a 2-0 lead after the opening frame.
