Mississippi State Wins In Late Inning Fashion

It took 12 innings, and over four hours of baseball for the Diamond Dawgs to get the win over the Houston Cougars.

Hunter Stovall’s sacrifice-fly in the 12th inning brought home Tanner Poole to secure MSU’s 3-2 win.

The Diamond Dawgs took a 1-0 lead in the bottom half of the third inning after Stovall delivered a fielder’s choice RBI, which scored Poole.

The Cougars tied the score the next inning on a homer over the left field wall. Good pitching by both teams kept the score deadlocked through seven innings. The Cougars took a 2-1 lead after a single in the top of the eighth.
