Indiana defeated Penn State 11-8 and Michigan continues their winning ways by defeating Purdue 6-1. You can read my recap of the games at The College Baseball Blog.
Indiana’s Celebration…
Penn State’s Disbelief
I will say that the PSU-IU game was one of the best games I’ve seen at the Big Ten Tournament. Never had I seen such rollercoaster of emotions as I was sitting behind some Penn State fans (including Joe Blackburn’s parents). The top of the ninth their team had come back from a 3-run deficit to take the lead.
The next half inning, a grand slam erases all of that. That’s a lot to take.

Update: I saw Tyler Cox’ grand slam and the ensuing celebration on ESPN’s SportsCenter last night. Now, they’ll start paying a little attention to college ball, Brian from Big Ten Hardball told me.
