Can't spell moral victory without an L, but the 8-3 final isn't the worst outcome. Aces didn't have much offense for 6 innings. Schultz takes the loss. Game 3 is Sunday. Adjust your clocks accordingly. Looks like a 1 p.m. game. Box it: www.espn.com/college-baseball/boxscore/_/gameId/401628761

Today was a loss, but we haven't been overwhelmed in either of the first 2 games. Only one MSU player had a multi-hit game today, so that tells me our pitching is hanging in there. This is going to prepare us well for MVC play.
The attendance # for today -- 10,400

From the GPA website:
With the victory, Mississippi State extends its winning streak to eight-straight games, as the Bulldogs improve to 11-4 overall. Evansville, meanwhile, sees its season record even at 7-7. The series will conclude on Sunday at 1 p.m. Freshman left-hander Kenton Deverman (2-0, 2.55 ERA) is expected to get the start for UE. Sunday's game can be seen live on the SEC Network+ streaming service. State doesn't reveal its pitchers on the game wrap.

In my opening post MSU had RHP Jurrangelo Cijntje (2-0, 1.15 ERA) listed as the game three starter. I guess we will find out soon.

Evansville’s freshmen LHP Deverman has recovered from a five run first inning to pitch a scoreless second and third inning. Three run homer by Rumsey in the top of the fourth has us within two but still down 5-3 heading to the bottom of the fourth.

Deverman isn't quite ready to face low-level professional hitters.

State was never that bad. They just had a terrible start and some wins over flunkies. I still think the Aces could have taken 1 game, but not 2.

This is the sort of series that the Aces are lucky to play. Of the dozens of good teams, getting a series at "the Dude" is an achievement. State doesn't expect to lose these games, and they rarely do. They throw heavy coin at their baseball team in an area that is a long way from the fans getting to see big-league ball. These games are good for recruiting.
I saw some photos of the clubhouse where the players have great facilities, better probably than they have at some Double-A venues.
