Indiana State Sweeps ISU

Indiana State broke a 3-3 tie with a run in the top of the ninth inning and Sycamore closer Austin Conway nailed down his 11th save of the season to secure a 4-3 win and a series sweep for the visitors Sunday at Duffy Bass Field.
Three Indiana State pitchers limited the Redbirds to just five hits, the final a one-out single from Ryan Hutchinson that put runners on first and second base for the Redbirds with one out in the bottom of the ninth. But John Rave struck out and Owen Miller flied out to center to end the game.
 
Miller and Joe Butler collected two hits each for the Redbirds, while Hutchinson tallied the Redbirds' only other hit in the game. Miller extended his hitting streak to 12 games and his RBI streak to nine games.
 
Redbird starter Matt Walker cruised through four scoreless innings before running into trouble in the fifth, where he allowed three runs, though only one was of the earned variety. 
 
The Redbirds return to action next weekend with a three-game series at Valley foe Southern Illinois.
