Sunday morning in the Hattiesburg Regional elimination game, and as it turned into Sunday afternoon, was a nine-inning microcosm of Mississippi State’s season. Highlight plays, eighth-inning scares, weather issues, great pitching, sometimes not-great pitching, last-minute heroics and a win that can hardly be celebrated before attention must be turned to the next one.
The answer to how the Bulldogs won – a question that’s been asked all season with varying degrees of incredulity – is easy enough. In a cliché-ridden season, it’s appropriate that another cliché keeps the season alive. MSU played as a team. They won as a team.
