The Purdue Baseball team hoped to complete the sweep over Indiana today. Here are some of my favorite photos from the game.

Scout Day:

Today was Scout Day at Alexander Field and there were definitely a lot of little ones running around, smiling wide:

Changing your shutter speed:

The photo below was shot at 1/2000 of a second. Even that fast is not fast enough to freeze the arm and ball at 80-90mph. I changed to 1/4000 after seeing an oval-shaped ball in the preview.

I’m glad I switched, nice circular ball now:

I even got the B1G logo front and center as Hunter Wolfe made his Alexander Field debut.

Despite the Boilermakers’ best effort, they fell in the third game this weekend 14-9.
