Butler baseball came into Cincinnati looking to topple the Big East leaders in Xavier. After two come-from-behind wins for the Musketeers, Butler falls to the Big East cellar with a 2-6 conference record.

In game one of the series on April 18, it was Butler that jumped out to the early 5-0 lead after a solo home run from catcher Zach Parker in the sixth inning.

The Bulldogs built that lead through stellar play from their ace, Ryan Pepiot.
