IU opens its three-game set with the IPFW Mastodons today at 3 p.m. at Sembower Field. You can check out Lee's preview story here.

The Hoosiers (8-8) will send sophomore right-hander Tyler Tufts (2-2, 3.10 ERA) to the mound in game one. Junior Cole Uebelhor (1-3, 7.31 ERA) will toe the rubber for IPFW (4-16).

IU's starting lineup for the series opener shouldn't look too much different than it has lately, but IU coach Tracy Smith is always moving people around. He also noted at practice Wednesday that sophomore center fielder Andrew Means will continue to move up the batting order if he keeps hitting the way he has been lately. With that in mind, I'll play manager and make a lineup. Projected lineup

1. Evan Crawford, 2B

2. David Trager, LF

3. Keith Haas, SS

4. Reid Briglia, DH

5. Josh Phegley, C

6. Andrew Means, CF

7. Tyler Cox, 3B

8. Jon Fixler, 1B

9. Sterling Mack, RF
