Missouri Baseball vs Auburn- May 10, 2024: Live Updates

Follow along as Missouri takes on the Auburn Tigers in their final home stand of the year.

Mizzou Athletics

The Missouri Tigers will need to take the series from the Auburn Tigers in order to give themselves a chance to make it in the SEC Tournament. Auburn is currently the only team that has a worse record than Missouri in conference play.

Only two games behind both Ole Miss and LSU, Missouri has a small chance to make the tournament if they are able to get those wins, especially with who their competitors for the final spot are facing in their series this weekend. Ole Miss is set to take on No. 2 Texas A&M and LSU will face previously ranked Alabama.

Missouri has only one pitcher set for the series so far, with sophomore Logan Lunceford taking the mound for the first game. Lunceford last pitched five innings in their game one loss to South Carolina in the previous weekend. He gave up four runs on four hits and three walks.
