Ben Troike and Michael Massey homered and Joey Gerber closed out his 14th save Thursday in the Illinois baseball team's 5-2 win over Nebraska.  Troike's homer was a two-run shot to tie the game in the first.  The sophomore starting shortstop has reached base in all 49 games this season while hitting .304. His current reached base streak is 53 dating back to the final five games of last season, the second-longest active streak in the nation.
