I really hope you came to the park last night. If you missed Illinois’ exciting 13-9 victory over the Ohio State Buckeyes, you missed, in my guess, one of the best games of past few years. It ranks up their with our win against the same Ohio State team two…
Lee Zerrusen put up four goose eggs for the Illini Tonight, the Illinois baseball defeated Illinois College 7-0 behind a committee of pitchers led by Lee Zerrusen who pitched four scoreless innings. Chris Pack got the win against the BlueBoys… Wait, stop! Blueboys? How did Illinois College get the nickname…
I was pleased to see that even in my absence, the Illini could win. In fact, this past weekend’s series against Michigan State seemed to be one of most thrilling baseball played at Illinois Field this year. The overall result? Illinois took the Spartans two games to one. I even…
Kelly Norris-Jones chats with Dugout Club rep John Santas before the game The first EIU batters hit safely in tonight’s game and it was 4-0 before Illinois got someone out. It didn’t get much better as Eastern won in a 10-2 wipeout. Justin Parr heads in to third But let’s…
Why is this man smiling? Because today, he got a lot of offensive support. As a result, Illinois defeated Michigan 9-2. Kevin Johnson pitched a gem Friday afternoon striking out eight Wolverine batters. It was a complete game giving the bullpen some rest. Johnson’s win today was only his second…
Illinois’ offense never got going as they got shut out by the SIU Salukis Wednesday night 3-0. The good guys only managed five hits for the game. Luke Joyce and the rest of the bullpen kept SIU scoreless for 4 plus innings Starter John Anderson had a rough fourth inning…
Win or lose, Brandon Hohl continues to clobber the ball Tonight, Illinois took their game on the road just a bit south of here and took on Eastern Illinois University. The pitching fared ok but the offense just couldn’t get going as EIU won 4-1. Illinois’ one run came on…
Brandon Hohl can’t do it all. Though he tried. Hohl did his best as he went 3 for 3 and drove in all four of Illini’s run in Saturday’s 7-4 loss to Iowa. He even gave the Illini faithful some hope of a comeback as he hit a ninth-inning two-run…
Three hits for Brandon Hohl I’m not much in terms of fan support, I guess. When I left my office to watch the Illinois play Benedictine, Gametracker told me we were ahead 4-1. When I got to Illinois Field (just a hop, skip and a jump across the cemetery), they…
At Lubrano Park, Illinois lost a tight game 3-1 against Penn State. Illini starter John Anderson and Penn State’s starter both pitched complete games giving their respective bullpens some rest. The Illini coaches may be working with pitchers and catchers a bit extra this next week. All three Nit runs…
