LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The Indiana Baseball team split a fall doubleheader with Louisville on Sunday afternoon, opening up the fall exhibition slate in 2024. The two programs played two, eight-inning contests for a total of 16 frames of baseball with their new rosters. Louisville won the opening game 6-2 but IU responded by winning the second affair, 5-4.
The Hoosiers used 15 pitchers across the two games. Senior pitcher Gavin Seebold, a transfer from Southern Indiana, was the only pitcher to throw more than one inning. Across his two frames of work, he retired all six batters with one strikeout. Seven transfers, five returners and three true freshmen pitched for IU.
Louisville transfer and outfielder Korbyn Dickerson combined to hit for the cycle across the two games. He was 2-for-3 with a double in game one and followed that up going 3-for-3 with a home run and a triple in the second contest. He rotated between right field and center field across 16 innings.
Freshman utility man Jake Hanley played first base for the Hoosiers, tallying a pair of hits including a massive solo home run in the first contest. Fellow true freshmen Hogan Denny, Cole Decker, Will Moore and Cooper Malamazian also received at-bats on Sunday afternoon.
Returning standouts Devin Taylor, Tyler Cerny and Jasen Oliver started in both games for the Hoosiers. Jake Stadler, Andrew Wiggins, Joey Brenczewski and TJ Schuyler made appearances in the doubleheader as well. The Hoosiers hit three home runs on Sunday with long balls from Dickerson, Cerny and Hanley.
