The Mizzou Baseball team will look to bounce back after a tough weekend against Florida.  After a big win over 18th ranked Missouri State, the Tigers faced the number one and defending national champion Gators.  Mizzou lost three straight games 3-1, 10-2, 7-2.  The Tigers are 0-9 in Gainesville since joining the SEC.

He hit .417 with (5-for-12) with four runs, two doubles, two homers and seven RBI.  Tuesday vs. Missouri State, he had a big go-ahead two-run single with two outs in the first inning and added a solo homer, driving in three.  He was 3-for-9 vs. Florida with a run, a homer and a team-high four RBI.

Mizzou will host Chicago State Tuesday before hosting nationally-ranked Vanderbilt for a three-game, Thursday-Saturday set at Taylor Stadium this weekend. It is Mizzou’s first Thursday-Saturday series and the first of three straight Thursday-Saturday series at home.
