WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – The Indiana-Purdue rivalry becomes the spotlight series during weekend No. 3 of Big Ten play for the second year in a row, with the Boilermakers hosting IU for a three-game set for just the second time since Alexander Field opened in 2013.
Inclement weather Friday led to the series schedule being changed to a Saturday-Sunday-Monday format. Game times are set for 3 p.m., 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. as Friday's game was essentially pushed to Monday. The Boilermakers have not played at home on a Monday since May 2010.
The Hoosiers' Bart Kaufman Field also opened in 2013, meaning the rivals both moved into new stadiums during the same school year. Due to quirks in the Big Ten schedule related to league expansion coupled with the shutdown in 2020, 14 of the last 18 IU-Purdue games have been played in Bloomington, helping account for the Hoosiers' big advantage in the series in recent years. Dating back to 2007, Purdue has won 15 of the last 19 meetings played away from Bloomington, including three of four at Alexander Field. The overall series in that same span is an even split at 20 wins apiece.
RECENT TRENDS IN THE INDIANA-PURDUE SERIES – PART 1 (Since 2007)
• Games Played in Bloomington: 21 – Indiana leads 16-5
• Games Played in West Lafayette: 14 – Purdue leads 11-3
• Neutral-Site Games: 5 – Purdue leads 4-1

• Games Played AWAY from West Lafayette: 26 – Indiana leads 17-9
• All Games: 40 – Tied 20-20
RECENT TRENDS IN THE INDIANA-PURDUE SERIES – PART 2 (Since 2013)
Alexander Field & Bart Kaufman Field both opened in 2013
• Games Played in Bloomington: 14 – Indiana leads 12-2
• Games Played in West Lafayette: 4 – Purdue leads 3-1
• Neutral-Site Games: None
• All Games: 18 – Indiana leads 13-5
Entering the season, among Big Ten teams only Maryland – which like IU was also scheduled to visit West Lafayette in 2020 – has played fewer games at Alexander Field than Indiana.
Indiana and Purdue both enter the weekend looking to right the ship. The Hoosiers have lost 10 of their last 15, including two of three vs. Northwestern at home last weekend after winning the series opener. The Boilermakers have dropped five of their last six since opening the season 18-1, suffering a sweep at the hands of Illinois last weekend in Champaign. Whichever team loses the series this weekend will officially be chasing it going forward in the race to qualify for the Big Ten Tournament (top 8 teams).
WEEKEND NUMBER 3 OF BIG TEN PLAY
• Rutgers at Nebraska
• Maryland at Minnesota
• Indiana at Purdue – Saturday-Monday
• Michigan State at Ohio State – Saturday-Monday
• Illinois at Iowa – Saturday Doubleheader
• Penn State at Northwestern – Saturday Doubleheader
• Cal State Fullerton at Michigan – Non-Conference
Purdue's Cam Thompson and IU's Matthew Ellis have emerged as two of the top sluggers in the league. Thompson leads the Big Ten with 39 RBI thanks in part to nine home runs and a 1.230 OPS, ranking third in both categories. Ellis has connected for a league-leading 13 home runs and ranks second with 35 RBI.
Thompson's 13-game RBI streak ended April 1 at Illinois. It was the longest by a Boilermaker in the last 20 years. Now the first baseman is in position to become the fastest Boilermaker (in terms of date on the calendar) in the last 20 years to reach the 40-RBI mark. One more home run would also make Thompson just the fifth Boilermaker since 2001 to hit his 10th home run before May 1.
MORE BOILERMAKERS TO HIT 10+ HOME RUNS (Since 2001)
• Daniel Underwood – 12 in 2003
• Ryne White – 12 in 2008
• Only Wood & McGowan have done it in the BBCOR bat era (2011-present)
Connections among the pitching staffs for Indiana and Purdue feature Kokomo High School teammates and the return of Boilermaker Dustin Glant, IU's first-year pitching coach. The Hoosiers' staff ace Jack Perkins, a transfer from Louisville, is close friends with Purdue's Kyle Wade. Along with being standouts on the diamond, as the starting quarterback (Wade) and running back (Perkins) they helped lead KHS to the 2017 IHSAA Class 5A state title game on the gridiron. Wade threw a 19-yard touchdown pass to Perkins in the 42-28 loss to Columbus East.
Glant was a relief pitcher for Purdue from 2001 to 2003 before being selected in the seventh round of the 2003 MLB Draft by the Arizona Diamondbacks. His coaching career has featured two stops at Ball State (2013, 2017-19) as well as two years in the New York Yankees farm system.
Meanwhile, the Boilermakers have an IU transfer starting in their infield for the second year in a row. Paul Toetz crossed the rivalry line this past summer, joining his sister Haley – Purdue's academic advisor – in West Lafayette. Toetz led the Big Ten in doubles as a Collegiate Baseball Freshman All-American for the Hoosiers last season. Toetz has started each of the first 25 games this season as a Boilermaker, all but one at second base.
