Around the Horn
Opening Pitch: This is the start of Ball State's longest home stand of the season (five games) and features games against Indiana State, Northern Illinois and Ohio State.
Five of Ball State's previous six games have been decided by one run or in extra innings. The Cardinals are 2-3 in that span, but most recently earned a 10-inning victory over Bowling Green on Sunday. Senior 2B Seth Freed and junior 3B Zach Milam combined for four RBIs in that win.
Series History: Indiana State has won seven straight against Ball State and holds a 91-51 edge in the all-time series. The Sycamores are 44-33 versus the Cardinals in Muncie.
Ball State's most recent win over Indiana State was a 12-5 triumph on April 20, 2010. Indiana State has averaged nearly 10 runs per game in the last seven meetings.
The Cardinals scored a pair of runs in the top of the first inning in last year's game, but would not score the rest of the way as Indiana State rallied for an 8-2 win on May 16, 2017.
This and That: Some random stats heading into Wednesday's game …
• Junior C/OF Griffin Hulecki has tallied multiple hits in three of the last four games and is riding a seven-game hitting streak.
• C Chase Sebby has thrown out 12 of the last 14 runners attempting to steal a base.
• OF Colin Brockhouse has each reached base safely in 20 straight games. He made his 100th career start this past weekend at Bowling Green.
