Schultz was really good against Rutgers, really good. Since then, woof!
*****Official IOWA (#74 RPI) vs Purdue (#125 RPI) Games Thread (May 6, 7, 8). Sat on BTN. Fri & Sun on BTN Plus ($$)*****
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
Let's hope Purdue's bats come alive some time late next week.
Purdue Hit Leaders in Last 10 Games
Viola: 16-for-40, 3 HR, 11 RBI, 4 BB, 10 R
Bolton: 11-for-30, 3 XBH, 4 RBI, 3 BB, 6 R, 4 SB
Albrecht: 14-for-41, 2 2B, 7 RBI, 3 HBP, 5 R, 3 SB
Washington: 14-for-45, 3B, 5 RBI, 4 BB, 10 R, 6 SB
Thompson: 40 game on base streak
Hope is not a good strategy I guess.
Purdue brought their hitting shoes and are hitting the ball HARD.
6-0 Purdue.
Heading to the bottom of the 4th.
With 2 outs and a 3-2 pitch, Anthony homers to left field, 3 RBI (3-2); Williams scored; Seegers scored.
Iowa started the inning down 6. Now down 6-4

Bottom of 6th:
STEPHEN in to pitch for WENDELL

Hopefully Iowa can take advantage.

Put the damn ball in play! Absolutely pathetic situational hitting there with runners on 2nd and 3rd with NO OUTS.
and take advantage IOWA did NOT
Today Iowa is just 1-8 with runners in scoring position
2 Iowa batters strike out looking to end the inning.
The details:
Fullard singled up the middle (0-2) to start the inning Sher doubled to right center (0-0); Fullard advanced to third.

that's a gift; that ball should have been caught by the Iowa RF; he was right there and it went off his glove
The iowa RF'er does not have his sunglasses pulled down and drops a routine fly ball in foul territory
Good grief.
This time it does not cost us.
7-4 Purdue
Heading to the bottom of 7th

another pop up to right
this time it hit Fullard's glove, but he dropped it
costs Iowa another run
and the scorer rules it a double
LOL

These 2 items cost Iowa at least 4 runs:
(1) Bottom of 6th: Runners on 2nd and 3rd, NO OUTS, and the next 3 Iowa batters strike out
A single would have given Iowa 2 runs
(2) 2 dropped balls cost Iowa 2 runs
Those costly mistakes and failures to execute at the plate that cost Iowa 4 runs end up being the difference as Iowa loses 10-6
@EvilMonkeyInTheCloset , your thoughts in 3 letters or less?
Yeah it was pathetic. It's not just an issue this year. It has been the last few. Zero reason to not get the ball in play once with guys at 2nd and 3rd with no outs. Iowa basically used up Nedved for the weekend too.
Rubber Game Sunday.
Iowa is 11-4 over their last 15 games.
