Baseball: ‘Cats reach .500 and take first B1G series 2-1

Last weekend, Northwestern baseball travelled to Bloomington, Ind., to take on the Hoosiers to open conference play.

Freshman Sean Sullivan took the mound for the first match of the weekend on Friday where he had another stellar six inning start. He struck out 11 Hoosier batters on three hits and zero earned runs.

Heading into the seventh inning, Northwestern held onto a 2-0 lead, but Indiana fired right back with a five-run inning, picking up a 5-2 advantage. The ‘Cats were able to pick up two more runs thanks to a few pitching errors by Indiana, but they ultimately fell in the first matchup, 5-4.
