CHAMPAIGN — The numbers expressed a potentially dangerous picture for Illinois baseball.
Entering a three-game Big Ten Conference set at Illinois Field, No. 19 Indiana possessed the league's top slugging percentage and most runs scored, in addition to leading the nation in home runs.
Through two dates, however, the host Illini have made the Hoosiers look mortal.
After Andy Fisher achieved that in a 4-0 triumph Friday night, Ty Weber did the same Saturday afternoon in Illinois' 3-1 victory in front of 2,779 fans that secured a series win.
"I always think we're capable of doing that," Illini coach Dan Hartleb said of his hurlers mostly silencing a program that was averaging a shade over seven runs per game.
