In his last 45 games, Houston had just seven errors. PITCHING NOTES A big part of Indiana s success in recent years has been its pitching staff, with eight pitchers over the last three seasons going on to play professionally with MLB organizations. Under the tutelage of Associate Head Coach/ Pitching Coach Kyle Bunn, the Hoosiers in 2016 ranked second in the country in walks allowed per nine innings (2.31), fifth in WHIP (1.15) and 11th in team ERA (3.09). Indiana led the Big Ten in fewest walks per nine innings, WHIP, strikeout-to-walk ratio (3.17), was second in team ERA and second in hits allowed per nine innings (8.02). Bunn has been known nationally for developing his pitchers as 54 of them have gone on to play professional baseball. During his 16-year stint as an assistant at Ole Miss ( ), Clemson ( ), Alabama (2010), East Tennessee State ( ) and Indiana (2015-present), a total of nine of his pitchers have reached the Major Leagues. Bunn s staffs have poured out three first round draft picks and 22 top five round draft picks. Junior right hander Jonathan Stiever is in his third season with the Hoosiers and his second season as IU s Friday night starter. The Cedarburg, Wis. native is first in the Big Ten in strikeouts (48), is second in K-BB ratio (5.3) and is fourth in BB/9 Innings (4th). The junior earned Big Ten Pitcher of the Week honors for the first time of his career on March 19, as he threw six scoreless innings in the win over Northern Illinois. He allowed only two hits, while striking out six Huskies. Stiever had one of the best starts of his career against Pacific, as he went eight innings, striking out a career-high 12 hitters. The 12 strikeouts were the most for a Hoosier pitcher in a single game since Joey DeNato punched out 12 against Michigan on April 27, Additionally, his 12 Ks are tied for the most in a game by a Big Ten pitcher this season (Riley Mc- Cauley, Michigan State; Tyler Blohm, Maryland). He finished 2017 second in the Big Ten and 11th nationally in walks allowed per nine innings (1.05), while finishing first in the Big Ten and 14th nationally in strikeout-to-walk ratio (6.33) Junior right hander Pauly Milto mans the Saturday slot for the Hoosiers. The Greenwood, Ind. native is tied for second in the Big Ten in complete games (T-27th nationally), tied four fourth in wins (4), and is fifth in ERA (2.25). He was named Big Ten Pitcher of the Week, as he tossed his first complete game in a 4-0 victory over Boston College at the Snowbird Classic in 2018 GAME NOTES SHORTSTOP STARTING PITCHING In the win at Indiana State on March 11 last season, Houston recorded 10 assists in the field without making an error. The 10 assists were the most in a single game for IU since Casey Rodrigue also had 10 on April 4, 2015 against Michigan. The Chicago native hit his first career collegiate home run in the win over Maryland on April 30. It marked the first home run hit in any game he has played since he was 14 years old. He has hit two career home runs, with the other coming against Minnesota in the 2017 Big Ten Tournament. The IU pitching staff leads the nation in ERA (2.39), is first in the Big Ten in shutouts (6, T-5th nationally), walks per nine innings (2.94, 12th), WHIP (1.22, 14th), and strikeout to walk ratio (2.73, 25th), and is thrid in hits allowed per nine innings (8.02, 48th), opposing average (.239) and strikouts (278). A strength in the first half of the season has been Indiana s bullpen. The Hoosier bullpen has logged innings allowing just 29 earned runs (1.87 ERA), while allowing 122 hits and striking out 134. In the series victory over San Diego, Hoosier relievers logged 16.2 innings on the weekend, allowing just three earned runs (1.62 ERA). IU s bullpen did not allow a single earned run during its weekend sweep in Port Charlotte, as the Hoosiers logged 10.1 innings of relief allowing just seven hits (vs. Rutgers, Boston College and Chicago State).
