A postponement to Sunday and a severe ice storm didn’t stop the Missouri State Bears baseball team from starting its season in the plus. Just five days away from the first pitch of the 2018 baseball season, around 300 Bear fans, Al Hrabosky and the Missouri State baseball team gathered at Hammons Field training complex to raise money and throw the ‘first pitch’ of the season.
The event was supposed to run Saturday evening but was postponed due to the inclimate weather, but the Bears faithfuls showed up.
“I’m really pleased at the crowd we had given the weather circumstances,” Bears head coach Keith Guttin said.
