The Mizzou offense came up to bat in six different innings against Missouri State; but they only need one to beat them. The Tigers put up all seven runs in the second inning in a 7-2 win against Missouri State.
The game started slow, with no baserunners — let alone runs — in the first three half innings. The early highlight was a trio of strikeouts from Cierra Harrison, starting her day on the right foot.
That changed with a seven-run second inning to blow it wide open. It all started with a one-out swing of the bat from Stefania Abruscato, sending a solo home run into right field to open the scoring.
