Maryland baseball captured its first Big Ten series win last weekend against Penn State. The Terps took Friday and Sunday’s games, 8-4 and 7-2, to clinch the three-game series, but dropped Saturday’s matchup in extra innings.
Pitching has been Maryland’s calling card as of late as its starting pitchers have allowed just 19 hits and seven runs over the last four games. The Terps currently rank third in the Big Ten in opponent batting average (.231), fourth in ERA (3.83) and fifth in strikeouts (235).
Before playing Minnesota in a three-game series, Maryland will square off against George Mason, a team it has already faced this season, on Tuesday and then Navy on Wednesday.
