BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Power rocks.
You know that, right?
Indiana has baseball power to spare, and in a lineup that launches home runs at a Big Ten-best pace, one guy has moved back into the biggest knock-it-out-of-the-park batting spot of all:
Granted, the sophomore left fielder doesn't have the heavy-hitting numbers of teammates such as Matt Lloyd (16 home runs), Cole Barr (15 homers) and Matt Gorski (11 homers), but his ability and upside (see the three hits he had in consecutive games last weekend at Michigan, or the four he had Thursday against Rutgers) make him the newest clean-up hitter of choice for coach Jeff Mercer.
