Mizzou bounced back from a series loss to Northern Kentucky with a midweek home win over Lindenwood on Tuesday. Now, it turns its attention to a mediocre Purdue-Fort Wayne squad.
The Tigers (6-6) and Mastadons are set for a four-game set at Taylor Stadium this weekend, including a doubleheader on Saturday. While Purdue-Fort Wayne (4-9) did take a game earlier this year in a midweek contest over then-No. 20 Indiana, the Tigers should take care of business. But as we learned last week, things don’t always go according to plan.
At the plate
The good news for Missouri is that the Mastadons do not have the same caliber of offense that Northern Kentucky does — not many do.
