With one out and the bases loaded with Spartans in the top of the ninth inning, Will Nolden made what might have been the defensive play of the year thus far for the Hoosiers. After catching a hard-hit line drive in left field to record the second out, Nolden threw out Michigan State's Anthony Cheky at home plate to complete the inning-ending double-play and to help keep the game knotted at two entering the bottom half. Nolden would be at the plate in the game's final play, when shortstop Michael Basil, who led the inning off with a single, scored on a wild pitch from MSU's Tony Weiber.
In this video, Nolden talks about the throw that swung the momentum of the game in the Hoosiers favor, the game's final play and about where his throw at the plate ranks among his all-time bests.
