New names shine in Missouri State's dominating opening day doubleheader sweep

Gone are the names of Jake Burger and Justin Paulsen, but the Bears are still winning baseball games.

Missouri State opened the season Friday with two wins in a doubleheader at the Cardinal Classic in Beaumont, Texas.

Game 1 - Missouri State 8, Texas Southern 2

MSU had a total of 59 come-from-behind victories in the two previous seasons and in 2018, they now have one.
