Rutgers beats Indiana in shortened B10, advances to final

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Evan Sleight had three hits, Mike Nyisztor drove in two runs and Ryan Lasko scored twice as second-seeded Rutgers beat eighth-seeded Indiana 14-2 in the semifinals of the Big Ten Tournament. A lightning-caused weather delay halted the game — which started a few minutes before midnight — at 1:23 a.m. Central Time and it was ended after 7 innings in a run-rule victory for the Scarlet Knights. Rutgers (44-14) plays the winner between Iowa and Michigan in the other semifinal. Carter Mathison hit a two-run home run for Indiana (27-32).
