Ohio State junior Zach Hurley slides into home during Tuesday's game with Xavier and is tagged out. OSU won the game 9-7. Over the weekend the Buckeyes lost two out of three games to Minnesota.
The No. 18 Ohio State baseball team struggled this weekend, losing two out of three to the Minnesota Golden Gophers.
The series left the Buckeyes with an overall record of 22-7 and 3-3 in the Big Ten.
In their first game Friday night, the Buckeyes were defeated by a score of 7-5. It marked the first time all season the Buckeyes had recorded back-to-back losses.
The Buckeyes scored first on Zach Hurley's 34th RBI of the season in the third inning giving the Buckeyes a 1-0 lead. But that was the last lead that OSU would have. The Gophers stormed back scoring three runs in the bottom half of the third to take a 3-1 lead. They would add four more runs for the day. OSU tried to make it interesting by scoring a run in the seventh and adding three runs in the eighth. Ryan Dew hit a two-out two-run single scoring Michael Stephens and Dan Burkhart to cut the lead to 7-4. They added one more run on a line drive off the bat of Michael Arp, scoring Dew from first.
