Buckeyes split Saturday double-header
From the Official Site
EVANSTON, Ill. - Ohio State pounded three two-out home runs in the second inning of game two with Northwestern Saturday and rolled to a 13-1 win to split a doubleheader at Rocky Miller Park. The Wildcats came from behind to win the opener, 6-4.
The home run fun, which doubled the team's Big Ten home run total from three to six, led to a season-high eight run inning. Left hander Ryan Dew hit a three-run home run to the opposite field to give the Buckeyes a 4-0 lead. Four batters later, Brian DeLucia hit an inside the park grand slam home run - a towering shot to center that, aided by the blowing winds in Evanston, nobody was able to reach - and freshman Dan Burkhart followed with his first career home run to left to cap the big inning for the Buckeyes.
