Missouri baseball drops two games to Oklahoma State

The Missouri baseball team lost both games of a doubleheader against Oklahoma State on Sunday in Stillwater, Okla.

The Tigers (12-14, 3-5 Big 12 Conference) were pounded by the Cowboys 13-1 in the first game, which was stopped after seven innings because of the run-rule.

Tigers’ pitcher Kyle Gibson (4-2) had the shortest outing of his career, going two innings and giving up seven runs on seven hits.

The Tigers had four hits in the game. Senior Ryan Lollis collected two of the hits and scored the Tigers lone run of the game.

The second game was not much better for the Tigers. They lost 6-2, managing two hits.

The Tigers took a brief lead in the fourth inning, when senior Steve Gray tripled in junior Gary Foliga. Gray then scored on a balk by Oklahoma State making the score 2-1. The Cowboys tied in the game in their half of the inning and took the lead for good in the fifth on Michael Dabbs' solo home run.

Nick Tepesch (1-2) took the loss for the Tigers.

The Tigers and Cowboys will play the final game of the series at 1 p.m. Monday in Stillwater.
