Although the Buckeyes got on the board in this one, they ultimately lost to #17 Michigan, 5-2 on Saturday in the second game of their series. The entire offense for OSU came from RBI base hits from Dominic Canzone and Andrew Fishel. The loss on the mound went to Connor Curlis who went 5 innings of 2 run, and 3 hit baseball.

Ohio State will look to avoid the sweep on Sunday as they wrap up their series at 4pm

It took 12 innings, but the Buckeyes capped off a late night by defeating Bowling Green in Columbus 7-6. Most of the offense came from Dominic Canzone with 3 RBI and the deciding walk-off single in the 12th. Kyle Michalik earned the win on the mound in relief going 1 inning of hitless baseball.

Next up is another midweek game against a MAC opponent tonight against Ball State.

The Buckeyes dropped the second of their two midweek non-conference games, this time to Ball State, 14-4. It was not a night OSU would like to remember as starting pitcher Jake Vance went 4.1 innings on the mound giving up 5 runs (4 earned). The majority of the Buckeyes offense came off of Shea Murray's two triples which drove in 3 runs.

This weekend, the Buckeyes travel to Iowa for a 3 game series which begins on Friday.
