WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. \u2013 The RedHawks took down Purdue Tuesday evening in an extra-innings 5-3 thriller on the road, picking up their first win over a Big Ten team since 2023, which also came against the Boilermakers. Dominic Krupinski<\/a> had three hits on five at-bats, including the RBI single that gave Miami the lead in the 11th inning. The RedHawks improve to 23-12 with the win, while Purdue falls to 25-11.<\/p>\n

HOW IT HAPPENED
\n \n<\/p>\n


\n\tThe RedHawks were not able to score after loading the bases in the first inning. Jack Geiser<\/a> recorded three straight outs in the bottom of the first to keep it a tie game.
\n\tMiami took a 1-0 lead in the second inning. Diego Cruz<\/a> took first base after an HBP, stole second base and advanced to third base on an error. Matthew Buffington<\/a> drove him home with a groundout.
\n\tPurdue answered with two runs in the bottom of the second. After two HBPs, the Boilers hit an RBI single and a sac fly to take the lead.
\n\tThe RedHawks took a 3-2 lead in the top of the third. Ignacio Gonzalez<\/a> reached on a fielding error, and Krupinski singled to put runners at the corners. Ryan Novak<\/a> sent Gonzalez home with a sac fly and Cruz singled to bat in Krupinski.
\n\tGeiser had another one-two-three inning in the bottom of the third to keep the lead.
\n\tPurdue tied the game with a solo home run in the fourth.
\n\tGeiser, Jake Tedesco<\/a> and Austin Berggren<\/a> held the Boilermakers scoreless through regulation. Berggren finished the ninth inning with back-to-back swinging strikeouts.
\n\tPinch hitter Mason Breidenbach<\/a> doubled in the tenth, and Cruz was intentionally walked, but the RedHawks were unable to score. Marc Iozzo<\/a> came in to pitch in relief and saw three up, three down to bring the game to inning number 11.
\n\tAt the top of the 11th inning, Marcus Dierks<\/a> led off with a double and advanced to third on a single by Evan Appelwick<\/a>. With nobody out, Tommy Harrison<\/a> walked and loaded the bases. On a 2-2 count, Krupinski hit a single through the left side, scoring Dierks to take a 4-3 lead. Novak followed with a sac fly, adding an insurance run and making it a 5-3 ballgame.
\n\tAfter giving up a leadoff double, the RedHawks turned a tight double play to set up a two-out, empty-bases situation. Iozzo sent down the game’s final batter to put a lid on Miami’s 5-3 victory over the Boilermakers. <\/p>\n
