IOWA CITY, Iowa – Redshirt sophomore Adam Mazur flirted with his second straight complete game shutout and the University of Iowa baseball team’s offense put up a five spot in the third inning en route to a 5-2 series-opening victory over Purdue on Friday at Duane Banks Field.

The win moves the Hawkeyes to 27-15 overall and 11-5 in Big Ten play.  Iowa has won seven straight series openers dating back to March 25.

Mazur tossed 8 2/3 shutout innings before giving up two runs with two outs in the top of the ninth.  The righthander retired 11 straight Boilermakers from the third through the sixth innings before surrendering a leadoff single in the seventh.

“I was pitching into the zone and letting them hit it,” said Mazur, who improves to 6-2 this season. “I know I have a lot of good help behind me.”

Iowa’s offense scored five runs – all in the third inning – and finished with 10 hits in the game.

Seven different Hawkeyes tallied a hit with Fullard leading the way with a 3-for-4 day with one RB
