The Missouri State University baseball team beat the Saint Louis University Billikens 9-7 on Tuesday afternoon to push its current winning streak to three games.
Despite the rainy weather in the area, the game started just 30 minutes behind schedule to a very small crowd of 167 at Hammons Field. The majority of the game was completed, but a thunderstorm swept through the area during the bottom of the eighth, leading to the game’s cancellation.

The Billikens wasted no time getting their offense going against Bears freshman starter Owen Slater, putting up a three spot in the top of the first when the first two batters reached on a single and a hit-by-pitch.
