Saturday
Missouri baseball rode a three-run first inning and four dominant innings of relief from freshman LHP T.J. Sikkema to pick up the 6-4 win over the Illinois-Chicago Flames on Saturday afternoon at Taylor Field.
The Tigers, who will go for the series sweep Sunday afternoon at 1 p.m., picked up their ninth straight win and improved to 9-1 on the year. A win tomorrow would mean the Tigers would have their first double-digit win streak since 2012, the last time the team earned a bid to the NCAA Tournament.
Mizzou got off to a good start offensively, scoring three runs in the first inning on two RBI doubles and a double steal.
