Mississippi State entered the weekend squarely in the race for the SEC regular season championship. They left it with one less thing to worry about. Missouri, who had the worst record in SEC entering the weekend, stunned Mississippi State by competing hard in all three games and winning two of them to take the series.
The Bulldogs' midweek matchup with UT Martin was rained out, so the weekend series against Missouri was their only baseball activity of the week. The Missouri series was State's second Thursday-Saturday series of the season. They wore the exact same uniform rotation that they had in the first (an early April sweep of Kentucky): white 85s on Thursday, maroon 85s with white pants on Saturday, and white M over S pinstripes on Saturday.
With the series-opening win on Thursday, the white 85s improved to 7-1 on the season. The classic look has been one of the Bulldogs' most successful this season; only the gray script "State" jerseys (4-0) have a better winning percentage.
After the loss on Friday, the maroon 85 jerseys dropped to 9-4 on the season (8-4 when paired with white pants). The rubber match loss on Saturday was the first ever in this year's new white M over S pinstripes, which fell to 5-1 on the season.
