Baseball: Northwestern falls just short of a ninth-inning comeback

With a swing of his bat, Griffin Arnone made a much-needed win seem tangible in the ninth inning, but the late-night theatrics weren’t enough to give the ‘Cats their first win since last Tuesday.

Northwestern (8-35, 3-15 B1G) fell 3-2 to Milwaukee (22-14, 10-13 Horizon), losing its fourth in a row after a weekend sweep by Indiana. The Wildcats had a 10-run shutout against the Panthers when they faced off earlier in the season. This time around, the offense lagged behind, only garnering five hits.

The ‘Cats had the potential to post a run their first time up to bat.
