Freshman Mitch Voit pitches Michigan into Big Ten semifinal against Iowa

Omaha, Neb. – Cody Jefferis went 3-for-5 with a double and three RBIs, Mitch Voit went 4-for-5 at the plate and threw 5 2/3 innings in his first career start and Michigan beat No. 2 seed Indiana 13-6 on Friday in an elimination game at the Big Ten Tournament.

No. 6-seed Michigan (28-27) plays third-seeded Iowa – which beat the Wolverines 13-3 in the first round and defeated Indiana 9-4 in round two – on Saturday in the semifinals.

Voit (4-1), the Big Ten's freshman of the year, allowed just eight baserunners – six singles, a walk and a hit by pitch – and gave up three runs (two earned) with five strikeouts.
