The same issues that plagued Missouri all season showed up in the Southeastern Conference Tournament as the Tigers’ season came to a close with a 7–0 loss to Vanderbilt in Hoover, Alabama.
A quality start from Tanner Houck, who kept the No. 6 Commodores off the board through five innings, was not enough as defense and a lack of hitting cost the No. 11 Tigers a chance for an upset.
Houck ran into some issues in the sixth. Pitching on short rest, the sophomore right-hander was eventually tagged for a pair of runs after a leadoff walk followed by two straight base hits.
