Missouri baseball had an underwhelming start to the season during the team’s opening trip in Florida, going 4-4 and dropping its opening series to North Florida. The Tigers did end the trip with back-to-back wins over Rhode Island — including a 7-0 shutout to cap off the trip Sunday — giving some hope for the team’s chances at making it back to the NCAA tournament (provided MU’s appeal to the NCAA goes according to plan).
With Missouri set to host Alabama A&M in its home opener at 4 p.m. Tuesday, here are some observations from the Tigers’ showing in the Sunshine State.
