Underdog Hoosiers live to fight another day

The IU baseball team keeps writing chapters on the cinderalla story that is the 2008 season.\nIn ninth place and left for dead less than a month ago, the Hoosiers'' inspired late sesason play now has them one game closer to playing for a Big Ten Tournament crown.\nOn the bat of sophomore Josh Phegley, who went 4-for-4 with two home runs and six RBI, and the arm of sophomore Tyler Tufts, the Hoosiers prevailed 14-7 over the Fighting Illini. The win gives IU another shot at Penn State, who sent the Hoosiers to the loser''s bracket on the first day of tournament play. Tonight''s elimination game against the Nittany Lions will mean the end for one team''s season.\nCheck out Inside Pitch for a game wrap from the Illinois win and constant updates on the Big Ten Tournament.
