It was a busy weekend for Ohio State's baseball team, and it paid off in a big way this evening as the Buckeyes captured the Big Ten championship with a 3-1 win over Nebraska in Omaha. The win secures a spot in the NCAA tournament, which is set to get underway next weekend.
Greg Beals' squad was scheduled to play Minnesota last night in an elimination game, but the potential for severe weather and curfew restrictions bumped the game to Sunday morning. The game got underway at noon and Brady Cherry started the scoring with a two-run bomb in the fourth inning.
