A heck of a come back effort falls just short as the Boilers lose to IU 8-6. IU put up all 8 in the bottom of the 5th and 6th innings. Boilers fought back in the top of the 9th with 4 runs but needed 6. Purdue will take on No. 2 seed Nebraska on Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET in the first elimination game of the tournament. Purdue did not play Nebraska this season. Purdue and Nebraska have met just once before in the Big Ten Tournament, with the Huskers winning the opening round game in 2017 in Bloomington. The Boilermakers have not played NU in the state of Nebraska since an April 2019 series in Lincoln.
Kennan Spence had a game with 2 home runs and he robbed another one on defense. You can read more about the game from Purdue Sports HERE.
