COLUMBIA, Mo. – After taking the series against No. 24/25 Auburn, Mizzou will take on Saint Louis in a midweek matchup Tuesday at 3 pm CT on ESPN+.
Mizzou pitching led the way against Auburn with Jordan Weber headlining the staff. In the opener, Weber went six innings and struck out 13 batters, something that no Tiger had done since Chelsea Thomas in 2013. Emma Nichols and Megan Schumacher provided impressive relief outings for Mizzou as well. Nichols earned the victory on Friday by going 3.0 innings and allowing only an infield single.
Hatti Moore blasted four home runs on the week, putting her total at 12 for the season and 30 for her career. The senior catcher also was a force behind the plate, gunning down runners on multiple occasions.
Casidy Chaumont appeared in Friday’s game and earned a spot in the starting lineup for Saturday and Sunday’s games. She took full advantage of this opportunity, going 4-for-7 on the weekend with two doubles and a stolen base.
Mizzou leads the all-time series with Saint Louis 63-3. The last matchup took place in 2015 with a 10-6 Tiger victory.
