Rick Heller’s Iowa baseball team traveled to Rutgers last weekend to take on a red-hot Scarlet Knights team. Iowa won the first two games of the series, 4-1 and 12-2, but then dropped the final game 10-4. Taking two out of three on the road against Rutgers was practically a best-case scenario. Rutgers came into the weekend in the top 5 of the NCAA in batting average and ERA. Iowa got nice starting pitching in two of the three games and played clean baseball defensively, committing one error. Here was a nice defensive play by third baseman Brendan Sher.
