Mother Nature forced opening weekend at Bill Davis Stadium in Columbus to be cut short for the Ohio State baseball team. After playing and losing their home opener to Xavier on Saturday, the Buckeyes were forced to hit the road to complete the series with the Musketeers in Cincinnati. The road proved to be no more kind than home for the team, though, as Ohio State dropped both games of a doubleheader on Sunday in walk-off fashion.
The Buckeyes lost their second consecutive series, and now stand at 8-11 on the season. The team will play its next nine games at home, though, in what may represent the greatest opportunity to get things turned around.
