LSU captures opening SEC baseball series over Missouri

When LSU freshman starting pitcher Ma'Khail Hilliard jogged to the dugout at the end of the first inning against Missouri Sunday after allowing the first two runs of his college career, there wasn't an ounce of concern on his face.

And when he exited at the end of the sixth after striking out his last batter of the day, there wasn't a hint of satisfaction.

Because that's how Hilliard, an unflappable 19-year-old, rolls. Just business, baby.

Hilliard didn't allow a run after the opening inning and LSU bats heated enough to provide the Tigers with a 7-5 victory to capture the SEC opening series of the season at Alex Box Stadium.
