O 2012 Purdue Baseball: Good Guys Wear Black P • Page 2 Head Coach Doug Schreiber Since Doug Schreiber was named Purdue’s head baseball coach on May 29, 1998, the Boilermakers have become a major force in the Big Ten Conference and have made big strides on a national level. Entering his 14th year as the head coach at Purdue, Schreiber has posted a 380-348 overall record and a 190- 178 Big Ten mark through his first 13 seasons. His overall win total ranks second in Purdue history, while his conference victories stand alone in first. In 2007, Schreiber became the third head coach in Purdue baseball history to surpass the 500-games mark as the Boilermakers’ head man. Dave Alexander, whom Schreiber played for from 1983 to 1986, owns the record for most games coached at Purdue with 792 over 14 seasons. Schreiber will make a run at Alexander’s all-time wins record (407) this season and is on pace to break the games coached benchmark in 2013. Purdue’s 37 overall wins in 2011 tied the program’s single season record and were the most in the Big Ten. Despite being picked eighth in the preseason coaches’ poll, the Boilers finished third in the league with a 14-10 conference record, just one game shy of first, and reached the Big Ten Tournament for the fourth consecutive year and seventh time in the last eight seasons. The four straight tourney appearances represent the longest active streak in the league as well as a program high. The program’s 58 Big Ten wins over the last four years are also the most in the league. Purdue led the Big Ten in numerous statistical categories in 2011, highlighted by runs scored, doubles, slugging percentage, on-base percentage, sacrifice flies, saves and strikeouts. The Boilermakers drew the most walks at the plate and issued the fewest number of free passes on the mound. Six Boilers were recognized as all-conference performers, matching the second-highest total in program history. Kevin Plawecki and Barrett Serrato were named First Team, Tyler Spillner and Nick Wittgren Second Team and Cameron Perkins and Stephen Talbott Third Team. With Serrato, Spillner and Talbott all honored as outfielders, it marked the first 14TH YEAR time 1991 that three Purdue outfielders were named all-conference in the same season. The 2010 season saw the Boilermakers post 33 victories, the program’s most since 2000. Purdue navigated a hotly- contested Big Ten race that saw all six league tournament-qualifying teams finish within three games of first place. The CAREER RECORD Boilermakers reached the Big Ten Tourney for the eighth time under Schreiber, including six of the last seven seasons. 394-351 (.529) Purdue eliminated Northwestern and Indiana from the 2010 tournament before bowing out. The Boilers have won at least one game at the Big Ten Tournament in seven of their eight appearances under Schreiber. Dave Alexander’s Purdue Wins Record: 407 The 2010 Boilermakers posted new school records for hits (636) and runs per game (7.2) at the plate and led the Big BIG TEN RECORD Ten in strikeouts (435) and batting average against (.276) on the mound. Purdue went 15-6 at home and 9-2 in midweek 190-178 (.516) action, compiling a 32-18 mark after opening the season 1-6. Individually, Matt Bischoff was honored as a First Team All-Big Ten starting pitcher. He led the Big Ten with 10 wins and 95 strikeouts and in the process became the first player in program history to be a four-time All-Big Ten honoree. He established new single-season and career strikeout marks in his final season as a Boilermaker.

Tournament Ohio State won 2-of-3 vs Austin Peay Penn State was swept in a 3-game series at East Carolina TWO-OUT RBI TITANS • Barrett Serrato (13 RBIs, 11 with two outs), Sean McHugh (9, 7), David Miller (8, 5) and Stephen Talbott (10, 6) have supplied the majority of their run production in clutch situations this season. All four players enter the weekend having recorded more than half their RBIs with two outs in an inning. Serrato has led the way, collecting 11 of his 13 RBIs with two outs. On two occasions this year, the opposition (East Carolina and Wichita State) intentionally walked Kevin Plawecki with a runner in scoring position to setup a lefty-lefty matchup with Serrato. He delivered a run-scoring single in both instances. • McHugh and Serrato have both connected for three-run homers with two outs in an inning this season. McHugh hit his three-run on the first pitch thrown by new WSU reliever Tobin Mateychick in the sixth inning of game two of the series. Serrato’s three-run homer capped the seven-run rally in the comeback win against Southern Miss.

WITTGREN BREAKS SAVES RECORD AS PITCHING CARRIES THE LOAD IN MSU WIN • Connor Podkul did not give up a hit until the fifth inning in his first collegiate start and Blake Mascarello and Nick Wittgren backed him up with 4 2/3 innings of one-run relief, as solid pitching led Purdue to a 4-2 win at Missouri State March 13. • Wittgren recorded his 16th career save by retiring six of the eight batters he faced over two innings of hitless relief. The junior officially eclipsed the program’s all-time saves record. He entered the night in a three-way tie with former closers Scott Dubach (1985-87) and Andy Helmer (1997-00). • Wittgren recorded his 16 saves in his first 35 relief appearances. He has converted 16 of his 18 save opportunities since becoming the closer early in the 2011 season. Seven of his 16 career saves have come in appearances longer than one inning. • Wittgren is the first Boiler to establish a new individual program record since Matt Bischoff recorded his 258th career strikeout to break the all-time record in an April 2010 home win against Northwestern.

DeANO EARNS THE WIN IN HIS COLLEGIATE DEBUT, STILL YET TO SURRENDER A RUN • Jack DeAno worked three innings of hitless relief in his Purdue debut, earning the win in the comeback victory against Southern Miss March 3. He retired nine of the 11 batters he faced, highlighted by a 1-2-3 ninth inning. Southern Miss, which had scored 32 runs in its last two games entering the day, racked up nine runs on 13 hits through the first six innings. • DeAno has now pitched in three games, working at least two scoreless innings in each of his relief appearances. He has yet to surrender a run. The right-hander worked 3 1/3 innings of scoreless relief, striking out four, to help lead the Boilers to a series-opening win at Wichita State March 15. • DeAno sat out the 2011 season as a transfer from Vanderbilt. He had not pitched since high school and was listed as an outfielder on the roster his first year with the program. While he could still see action as a defensive replacement or pinch runner, he is now expected to remain a full-time member of the bullpen.

BOILERS POUND OUT PROGRAM-RECORD 30 HITS IN BLOWOUT OF MURRAY STATE • Purdue pounded out a school-record 30 hits and scored eight runs in an inning twice, reaching the 20-run plateau for the first time since March 2008 in a 22-1 win at Murray State March 10. The Boilermakers sent 12 men to the plate in the eight-run sixth inning that blew the game open and later scored eight times with two outs in the top of the ninth. • The previous program record for hits was 26, accomplished twice, most recently in a 2006 win at Indiana (25-8). That game also marked the last time Purdue scored 20-plus runs in a road game. • The Boilers also turned four double plays in a game (March 10) for the third time this year, highlighted by a 2-5-4 twin killing on a MSU sac bunt attempt with two aboard and no outs in the second inning.

MASCARELLO STELLAR IN LONG RELIEF ROLE • Senior left-hander Blake Mascarello has been Purdue’s most consistent pitcher over the first month of the season, earning the win in four of his nine relief appearances. He was the winning pitcher against Connecticut, Auburn, Murray State (game one) and Missouri State. Mascarello has surrendered a run in only three of his nine appearances and helped the Boilers maintain a lead all but one time (game four at Wichita State) he has taken the mound. • While the lefty has been consistently excellent, his work in the Connecticut and Murray State wins stand out. He retired 12 of the 14 batters he faced over four scoreless innings in the season opener against UConn. In the series opener against Murray State, he retired 13 of the 14 batters he faced. In both instances he closed out the victory. – 2012 SITUATIONAL STATISTICS: TEAM LEADERS – With Runners On With Runners in Scoring Position With Two Outs Two-Out RBIs 1.

O 2012 Purdue Baseball: Good Guys Wear Black P • Page 6 BREEDLOVE MAKING BATTERS EARN THEIR WAY ON BASE • Lance Breedlove has issued just four walks in his first five starts while leading the team with 29 strikeouts. He issued only one free pass in his first four starts (March 3 vs. Southern Miss) but walked three batters in his start at Wichita State. The senior worked 14 1/3 innings before that first base on balls vs. USM. • Blake Mascarello also issued his first walk of the season at the Auburn tournament (March 2-4). The senior had not issued a walk in his first 7 2/3 innings over three appearances. Coincidentally, he walked the first batter he faced in his relief outing against Auburn. The lefty still got the win though, stranding the bases loaded in the fifth inning and facing only 10 batters in the sixth through eight innings. He worked 1-2-3 frames in the sixth and eighth.

CHARLES CONSISTENCY EARNS SENIOR BIG TEN PLAYER OF THE WEEK HONORS • Eric Charles recorded multiple hits and scored a run in all three games of the Keith LeClair Classic earning the senior Big Ten co-Player of the Week honors. • The second baseman finished the weekend 8-for-12 with two doubles, three RBIs and four runs scored. Charles got off to a hot start this season, leading the way a .560 batting average (14-for-25) over the first six games. He hit safely in each of first seven games (including six multi-hit efforts) and scored a run in the first eight. His career-best streak of reaching base safely in 27 consecutive games ended March 4 in the win against Charleston Southern.

BOILERS TURN EIGHT DOUBLE PLAYS IN GREENVILLE • Purdue turned four double plays in each of its two victories at the Keith LeClair Classic. Of the eight twin killings, six were of the inning-ending variety and none bigger than the 1-2-3 game-ending double play in the East Carolina win. Nick Wittgren induced a comebacker off the bat of the ECU cleanup hitter with the bases loaded, one out and Purdue clinging to a 6-4 lead. Wittgren had already walked the previous two hitters to load the bases when the count went full against ECU’s Chase McDonald. But moments later the game was over and Wittgren had earned his 13th career save, moving into third place on the Purdue all-time list. • Joe Haase (two), Joe Eichmann, Calvin Gunter, Blake Mascarello and Connor Podkul also induced at least one ground ball double play ball. Mascarello started a 1-6-3 double play to eliminate a leadoff single in the eighth inning of the ECU win. Defensively, David Miller (six) and Eric Charles (five) were active in the twin killings at the second base bag. • Purdue also turned four double plays in a game in a March 2011 home win against IPFW and three times during the 2009 campaign.

SPILLNER & CHARLES IGNITE THE OFFENSE AT ECU TOURNEY • While batting their customary first and second in the lineup at ECU’s Keith LeClair Classic (Feb. 25-26), Tyler Spillner (7-for-12) and Eric Charles (8-for-12) were a combined 15-for-24 with three walks, five RBIs and 10 runs scored. Both players reached base safely in all three games and had multiple hits in Purdue’s two wins. • Spillner reached base safely in three of his six opportunities to leadoff an inning, including the first inning of both wins. He’s been on safely to open an inning in nine of his 17 opportunities early this season. Sunday in the victory against Western Carolina, the senior posted his third career four-hit effort, scoring a run while recording a hit in each of his first four at-bats. • Andrew Dixon, Spillner and Charles each reached base safely twice and scored a run during the seven-run rally against WCU that decided the game. All three players recorded a hit their first time up to ignite the rally. They each walked in their second plate appearances of the extended frame.

PERKINS’ 67-GAME STREAK SNAPPED IN LOSS TO MARYLAND • After getting robbed of a potential base hit up the middle on a nice play by the Maryland pitcher in what proved to be Cameron Perkins’ final at-bat of the game, the junior’s remarkable streak of reaching base safely in 67 consecutive games was snapped. The streak dated back to 2010. Perkins reached base safely at least one in every game he played as a sophomore. • Perkins reached base safely 133 times during his streak. He collected 98 hits, 12 walks and was hit by a pitch 23 times, good for an on-base percentage of .421. • In Big Ten play, Perkins has reached base safely in 42 consecutive contests dating back to 2010. Including the Big Ten Tournament, he has managed to find his way on base in 49 straight games against conference opponents. He has compiled an on-base percentage of .425 during his Big Ten streak thanks to reaching base safely 94 times (70 hits, eight walks, 16 hit by pitch).

BREEDLOVE BESTOWED WITH PITCHER OF THE WEEK HONORS • Lance Breedlove’s career-high 11 strikeouts over his seven innings of two-hit ball in Purdue’s shutout win of Cincinnati (Feb. 18) earned the senior right-hander National Pitcher of the Week honors from College Sports Madness as well as Big Ten co-Pitcher of the Week honors. • Breedlove was dominant in his fifth career start as a Boiler. He surrendered only a pair of two-out singles and did now allow a base runner to advance past first. His 11 strikeouts represented the most by a Purdue pitcher since Matt Morgan fanned 14 in a March 2010 win at Ohio. • Breedlove would have retired the final 16 batters he faced if not for a two-out error in the fifth inning. The senior worked four 1-2-3 frames. He struck out the side in the first inning. Thanks in part to not issuing a walk, Breedlove only needed 89 pitches to complete his seven innings. Purdue’s first shutout win since the 2011 Big Ten home opener against Michigan was played in two hours and two minutes.

PERKINS’ GRAND SLAM HIGHLIGHTS NINE-RUN RALLY • Highlighted by a nine-run sixth inning that featured a grand slam from Cameron Perkins, Purdue scored in each of the final five innings to overcome a four-run deficit and defeat Notre Dame, 15-8, on the final day (Feb. 19) of the Big Ten/Big East Challenge. • Each of the nine players in the batting order reached base safely and scored a run before an out was recorded in the sixth inning, leading to the Boilers’ biggest inning since also scoring nine times in a March 2010 home win against Chicago State. Perkins connected for the first grand slam by a Boiler since April 2010, giving Purdue a 9-4 lead with a blast to left field. He finished with five RBIs, one shy of his career high. The grand slam was his 17th career home run, tops among active Boilers.

The Opening Weekend of Big Ten Play: Purdue Baseball at Ohio State Coming Soon: Alexander Field at the Northwest Athletics Complex Construction Began in Spring of 2011 Stadium to be located near the intersection of McCormick & Cherry on the northwest side of campus Alexander Field will soon be the new home of the Boilermakers. The $21 million baseball stadium, to be financed with athletics department funds, could eventually seat up to 2,500 spectators in the first phase of improvements to the Northwest Athletics Complex that includes the adjacent soccer facility. The intercollegiate baseball stadium will replace the existing 1,100-seat Lambert Field, which has been the team’s home since 1965. The new stadium will be named Alexander Field in honor of the late John and Anna Margaret Ross Alexander. The Alexanders were the parents of Dave Alexander, who is giving the lead gift for the project. David Alexander was Purdue baseball coach from 1978 to 1991 and then an athletics administrator through 1994. All three Alexanders graduated from Purdue, and Dave played on Purdue’s baseball team. John Alexander earned a bachelor’s degree in 1933, while Anna Margaret Ross Alexander earned a bachelor’s degree in 1935. Both received honor- ary doctorates from Purdue in 1986.
