On The Road Again – Iowa City, Iowa

 

The last time Hoosier Baseball wore the road uniforms they were winning a series in San Diego and literally running off of the field to catch a flight back to Bloomington.

Apparently some even wore them on the flight.

That Team of The North Road Trip finished up at 9-2. Now after going 6-2 At The Bart, the B1G road trips start up.

 

 

Hoosier Baseball heads 395 miles northwest for a series with The Hawkeyes. The last time many of us saw The University of Iowa Hawkeyes they were celebrating At The Bart

Some big pieces from that team are in MLB camps right now including Jake Adams and his 29 home runs. They do have another player expected to be drafted high in this year’s draft and that is junior outfielder Robert Neustrom. D1 has him listed as the highest position player from the B1G expected to go in this year’s draft .

To see who else is returning for Rick Heller’s team in 2018 you can see some pitching, infielder and outfielder previews from blackheartgoldpants.com here

This version of the Hawkeyes is currently 11-8 and just lost their first home game (4-1) to St Louis last night. 

They made a late comeback but fell just short. Game Recap Here.

Below is the current Iowa team stats as well

Our schedule for the weekend is a doubleheader scheduled for Friday at 1pm EST and 1 game Sunday at 2pm EST but weather looks like it could be an issue in Iowa City so it’s all based on that.

 

Greg Murray will be on the call and you can hear him here

Bringing 2 W’s back to Bloomington would be a great way to start the B1G Schedule. Sounds like it’ll be our Pair of Aces (Stiever and Milto) followed by Cam Beauchamp to finish the series. I like our chances.
