Ole Miss bats wake up as Rebels hold off Memphis in midweek matchup

Ole Miss baseball bounced back from a disappointing series against Missouri with a 9-6 win against the Memphis Tigers. An offensive outburst in the second inning and a steadying performance from the bullpen highlight the win at AutoZone Park.

Following a weekend that featured the Ole Miss offense falling into extended lulls at the plate, the Rebels used a four-run second inning to open the scoring between the two teams. Ryan Olenek scored Thomas Dillard with a triple. Cole Zabowski and Tim Elko added RBI’s in the inning, while Chase Cockrell scored as Elko occupied the Memphis infield in a rundown.
