When the No. 11 Mississippi State baseball team takes the field the next time, it will finally be against someone else.
The Diamond Dawgs wrapped up the preseason Tuesday with a six-inning intrasquad scrimmage, their 12th of the preseason. Maroon defeated Gray 7-3 at Dudy Noble Field thanks to a four-run sixth inning.
Redshirt sophomore Brent Rooker (2 for 2, run) and freshman Brant Blaylock (2 for 2, 3 runs, 1 RBI) both had multiple hits for the victors, while redshirt junior Jacob Robson (1 for 4) and sophomore Ryan Gridley (1 for 1, walk) had two RBIs each.
