Illini squeeze out a win vs SIU 5-4

Southern Illinois made it interesting but the Illini held on for their 15th win last night.  they won 5-4.  SIU scored three runs in ninth against Bryan Roberts but Bryan closed it out for an Illinois victory. 

Time is short so a few quick observations from looking at the box score. 

Three more stolen bases for Willie Argo?  Are you kidding me?  That makes SEVEN in two games!

It nice to see good pitching performances from Matt Milroy (one run in four innings) and Billy Barrett (two scoreless innings and a win).  Sterk and Braun continue their scoreless ways.

Again, Pete Cappetta proves that his early season slump is over.  Two for four with a triple, run and an rbi.  Keep it up!

Here’s the box score from last night. 

All for now.  Looking forward to this weekend!!
