Things To Watch
1. Both Teams on Hot Streaks
The Hoosiers and Scarlet Knights are currently two of the hottest teams in the Big Ten headed into the postseason. Indiana has won 8 of its last 10 games and all three of their final series. The Scarlet Knights are coming off of a sweep of Illinois and a series win against Maryland.
2. Impact Freshman on Both Teams
Both teams have newcomers that have made immediate impacts on the diamond. The Hoosiers’ freshman first baseman Jake Hanley has been phenomenal all season long, leading all Big Ten freshmen with 14 home runs, 71 hits, and 52 RBIs. For Rutgers, freshman phenom Landon Mack has been the anchor of their bullpen all season and is Tuesday’s expected starter. The righty boasts a 4.38 ERA with 64 strikeouts and a 5-5 record.
3. First Meeting This Season
This will be the Hoosiers’ first matchup with the Scarlet Knights this season and just their second Big Ten Tournament matchup. Indiana swept Rutgers in the 2024 regular season, while the Scarlet Knights beat the Hoosiers 14-2 in the 2022 Big Ten Tournament.
Up Next
The Hoosiers will play No. 3 seed Iowa on Friday, May 23.
