As of Thursday there was no announced starting pitcher for Indiana. The assumption is that sophomore righty Connor Foley is still dealing with tightness.

Lefty Brandon Keyster (juco transfer, John A Logan), will get the opening assignment tonight on the mound for Indiana.

LHP Brandon Keyster will get the nod for Indiana in the series opener against Rutgers. With Connor Foley sidelined with an injury, the southpaw will make his first start.

Looking like a bullpen game for the Hoosiers as they attempt to take game one. They've taken three…
entry by @iubase17 - April 26, 2024, 5:38 p.m.:
Indiana's lineup has been completely jumbled for the series opener.
— Zach Horwitz (@HorwitzZach) April 26, 2024
Devin Taylor leads off in the usual Carter Mathison spot. The Hoosiers centerfielder is 1 for his last 12, and batting 8th tonight.
