Michigan baseball loses lead in controversial fashion, loses to Louisville, 11-9, in NCAAs

In the early stages of the NCAA baseball tournament regional final in Louisville, Kentucky, on Monday, Michigan fell into a big hole early.

The hour-or-so rain delay seemed to do the Wolverines some good.

But fortunes weren't exactly on Michigan's side late, and the Wolverines fell to Louisville, 11-9, in the elimination game.

Michigan (34-28) ends the season after a surprising Big Ten tournament title and on the cusp of advancing in the national tournament.

Four outs away from the win, the wheels fell off for U-M with two outs in the eighth inning with a two-run lead.
