The Wildcats extend their Big Ten losing streak to four games in a row with another uneven performance.
On a chilly Friday afternoon in Evanston, Northwestern baseball's offense froze up in a 6-5 loss to the visiting No. 25 Minnesota Golden Gophers. Wildcats' ace Reed Mason took the loss as he allowed five runs (four earned) in 5+ innings while Minnesota's Matt Fiedler dominated the Northwestern lineup en route to his sixth win of the season.
Mason started the game off well, as he held a potent Golden Gophers' lineup -- which is among the best in Division 1 -- to just one run through four innings.
