STILLWATER, Okla. — Down four heading into the top of the ninth, Missouri State was three outs away from seeing its season come to an end but the Bears weren't worried.
As they've done all season long, they stayed calm and collected. They knew they were just a few swings away from accomplishing yet another improbable feat.
"We've been even-keeled the whole season," senior Mason Hull said. "It doesn't matter what the score is, we know what we're capable of. We've just been confident the whole season."
The inning before, Drake Baldwin hit a two-run home run to bring the game within four.
