Hoosiers hot streak continues as Indiana holds off second-ranked Cardinals at home with 4-3 victory By Andrew Hussey aphussey@indiana.edu | @thehussnetwork
IU manager Chris Lemonis leaned on his sophomore reliever to strike out one of the best batters in the country. Facing Louisville’s slugger Brendan McKay, sophomore pitcher Tim Herrin came in for IU with the game in the balance for the Hoosiers. With two outs in the top of the eighth inning and IU nursing a one run lead, Herrin struck out McKay. Herrin and the rest of IU’s pitching staff helped the Hoosiers upset No. 2 Louisville 4-3 on Tuesday at Bart Kaufman Field. Coming into Tuesday, Louisville had won 15 consecutive games and boasted one of the top offenses in the nation. IU’s pitching helped cool off the
Cardinals, with Louisville only managing five hits the entire game. Even with IU stymying Louisville, the Cardinals had a chance to get back in the game with McKay at the plate in the eighth. He came into the game with 15 home runs and is widely considered to be in contention for the first pick in the upcoming MLB Draft. Herrin struck out McKay in five pitches. “We just went purely off numbers right there and Timmy made some really good pitches,” Lemonis said. “Those two sliders were really good because that guy doesn’t swing out of the zone very much.” Herrin said he knew he was one of the best players in the country, but that didn’t faze him.
“As a pitcher, you’ve got to have a little bit of arrogance to yourself to think that you’re better,” Herrin said. “Even if you’re not, you can still beat anybody.” He was part of a bullpen that didn’t allow Louisville’s potent offense back in the game. Lemonis talked about how the bullpen had hurt the Hoosiers earlier in the season, but had been rounding into form as the postseason approaches. “They’ve been really good of late,” Lemonis said. “We have some pitchers really making some strides. Hopefully for the postseason that really helps because those last three or four guys, they hit spots all night long in a big environment against a great team.” IU scored runs only in the second

Jimmy Eat World, Beach Slang bring nostalgia to the Bluebird By Bryan Brussee bbrussee@umail.com | @BryanBrussee
When Philadelphia punk band Beach Slang opened for emo pioneers Jimmy Eat World at the Bluebird on Tuesday night, ‘90s nostalgia was in full effect. “Here’s some guys you said I look like,” Beach Slang frontman James Alex said to the audience in a break between songs. “A happier Billy Corgan if he had hair, Robert Smith, the singer from My Chemical Romance, Beetlejuice getting married,” he listed. Noticeably inebriated and wearing a torn sports jacket and bow tie, he read the names from a road-worn and tattered list. For how long Alex had been keeping track of names shouted out at him by audience members was unclear.
Beach Slang played a number of incomplete covers of ‘90s hits. Among the bands represented: The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lit and Oasis. A facsimile of Pixies’ “Where Is My Mind” followed. But that song wasn’t the last time the ghosts of rock and pop past would be summoned to the stage. Alt-rock elder statesmen Jimmy Eat World went on shortly after. Though the band played a mix of new songs from its latest record, 2016’s “Integrity Blues,” Jimmy Eat World also trotted out fan favorites culled from their two-decade career for the sold-out venue’s audience. The band’s setlist read like a list of classic alternative rock, with power ballads like “Believe You Me” mixing with radio rockers like “Bleed American,” both from
the band’s 2001 commercial peak “Bleed American.” Beach Slang ended their set with self-deprecation. “You’ve survived 40 minutes of hanging out with a band you’ve never heard of before,” Alex said at the end of his band’s set before walking off stage. Jimmy Eat World concluded its considerably longer set with an encore, in which they performed a handful of their greatest hits they’d presumably saved for such an occasion. As audience members sang along to the final couple of songs, it became apparent that nearly everyone at the Bluebird that night was familiar with Jimmy Eat World. Now they’re familiar with the drunken hijinks of Beach Slang, too.
An email from the University Information Policy Office and the University Information Security Office sent to IT professionals Tuesday reported that 2,537 sets of IU credentials had been compromised. About two billion records were publicly posted online and about 45,000 of those were associated with IU email domains. After receiving the reports yesterday, IU tested the posted credentials and found that most of them were not valid. However, more than 2,500 were able to successfully access IU resources. According to the email sent Tuesday, 2,240 of the credentials were associated with alumni accounts, four were for retired staff and two were for former employees. Because the majority of credentials were associated with former University students and employees, this limited access to important institutional data. IU will be scrambling the account passphrases to prevent any unauthorized access, as they do with all compromised accounts. The email addresses and passwords came from breaches of other sites like LinkedIn, Adobe, MySpace or Dropbox, Daniel Calarco, chief of staff for the Office of the Vice President for IT and CIO, said. Sometimes people use their IU email addresses to sign up for these websites and use the same passphrases, Calarco said. The majority of the posted accounts weren’t valid because IU requires passphrase resets every two years, strict passphrase requirements and most people do not reuse the same passphrase, Calarco said.
“It’s exactly why we have rolled out two-step logins. Even if someone reused their IU passphrase on some other company website, even if that site was breached, and even if they had not reset their passphrase in years, the cybercriminals still would not be able to use the passphrase to access IU systems ...” Daniel Calarco, chief of staff for the Office of the VIce President for IT and CIO
“It’s exactly why we have rolled out two-step logins,” he said. “Even if someone reused their IU passphrase on some other company website, even if that site was breached, and even if they had not reset their passphrase in years, the cyber-criminals still would not be able to use the passphrase to access IU systems because they would also need to steal the user’s Duo device.” Calarco said this is an example of how IU’s technical defenses have successfully guarded against human behavioral risk. This breach of data has come amidst a recent international ransomware attack that has hit about 150 countries. Ransomware is a type of software that is designed to block access to a computer system until a ransom is paid. Ransomware attacks generally target large institutions, such as hospital networks, universities and government operating systems.
