Mississippi State Drops Game 2 Against Southern Miss.

HATTIESBURG, Miss. - The Diamond Dawgs looked to rebound yesterday against the Golden Eagles after a 11-0 shutout loss Friday.

Mississippi State (0-2) fell in the second game of the three-game trip against Southern Mississippi (2-0).

MSU was trailing early after a three run first inning by the Golden Eagles on three hits.

A pair of solo homers by USM pushed the deficit to five runs after just two innings of work.

The Diamond Dawgs finally got the offense going in the third inning when Jake Mangum led off with a double to center and Josh Hatcher hit a two-run homer to make it a 5-2 ball game after three innings of work.
