Despite a forecast for Iowa and the Twin Cities that looks rather crappy, the Iowa baseball team traveled south to the Sunshine State to start its season. The Hawkeyes had a thrilling extra-innings win in game one, and then they rolled easily in games two and three.
Game 1: Iowa 6 - Indiana State 2 (11 Innings)
Iowa’s ace, Ty Langenberg, got the Friday start. Langenberg went five innings, surrendered five hits, and gave up two earned runs. He walked two batters and struck out six. The Hawkeyes got excellent relief when Jared Simpson came in and threw a gem.
