Hoosiers beat Nittany Lions, play Boilermakers tomorrow

Someone please tell Fairy Godmother that Tyler Cox wears a size 12 glass cleat. The senior infielder's walk-off grand slam against Penn State kept the Hoosiers' Cinderella story in the Big Ten Tournament going. After beating Illinois 14-7 and then Penn State 11-8 today, IU will take on rival Purdue tomorrow afternoon. The Hoosiers led 7-4 going into the 9th needing only three outs to advance to the final day of the tourney. IU starter Chris McCombs and reliever Chris squires stumbled and surrendered three runs, but still were one routine ground out away from keeping the game tied at least. But when that routine ground ball bounced of off Cox's glove, Indiana "went from being up three runs in the last inning, just needing three outs, to being down one really quick.

A late (late) post and an apology
