In a pitcher's duel, LSU prevaled beating Mississippi State 4-0 on Saturday (March 31) behind a lights out performance from Ma'Khail Hilliard to clinch the series.
LSU (18-11, 5-4 SEC) won its second SEC series of the season and hold the same conference record as last year's squad through 29 games.
It was another tremendous day on the mound for Hilliard, who breezed through six innings scoreless frames, notching a career-high nine strikeouts on 94 pitches.
Things started off rough for the freshman, beginning the game walking Jake Mangum and an error in the infield by Austin Bain allowed a runner to reach first.
