Doubleheader sweep for SIU today

In game 1, E took a 7 - 6 lead in the 9th and had runners at 1st and 3rd, two out, on a failed SIU double-play attempt! Coach asked for a review of the play at 1st. After a long review of the video by the umps, they overturned the call and called the E runner out at 1st, nullifying their 7th run and getting us out of the inning - big cheer from the biggest crowd this year and from the Dawgs!
The Hill was crowded...even had an Easter Bunny Bulldog in a tutu. 😀
Dawgs looked absent today in an 11 - 4 loss to crappy Austin Pee! Our RPI was up to 98 - knocked down to 110. Dropped fly balls, bad throws to 1st, etc.
MVC is the 5th rated conference in rpi currently (Big 10 is 10th - HA HA). Dallas Baptists have an RPI of 2 - we play three there this weekend.
Current Standings: (MoSt's coach must have retired.)
1 Indiana State 5-1
2 Southern Illinois 4-2
2 Dallas Baptist 4-2
2 Evansville 4-2
5 Bradley 3-3
6 Illinois State 2-4
6 Valparaiso 2-4
8 Missouri State 0-6

This sucks for the MVC and SIU.

Hurts the MVC baseball rep but it makes it easier for SIU to get to the NCAA.
Big start to a big series
We split with them last year. Our RPI is up to 91 this morning. DBU #4, Indy St. #71
Beat the Baptists!!
Dawgs up 6-1 in the 4th
Dallas Baptist hits a grand slam in the 8th to make it 10-7 SIU. They're coming up in the 9th down 3.
2 outs but Dallas Baptist has a run in and the tying run at the plate. Inning started with an error by the 3B
SIU hangs on and wins 10-9! Winning run got to 2nd. First series win for SIU over DBU.
Huge win. Let's keep this thing rolling.
