Bradley baseball

[tornado]

SIU about to pull the upset...
leading 7-2 in the bottom of the 8th vs. #1 seed Dallas Baptist.

edit...now 7-6 after a couple walks then a grand slam given up in the bottom of the 8th

[tornado]

wow- another hit batter then the 9-hitter for DBU homers as well...SIU bullpen imploding

[tornado]

SIU gets a game tying homer in the 9th
now 8-8..

[tornado]

pretty amazing...
Matt Duce, the guy who hit the grand slam, and who also hit a homer earlier in the game -
just hit another home run - a walk-off winner in the bottom of the 9th..
DBU wins 10-8

Matt Duce had three HR's tonight and get this- he had NOT hit a single home run all season - in 111 at-bats!!

[Tulsa Brave]

Bradley leads MSU 10-0 in the 6th.

[tornado]

Wow- what a great game for the Braves...
I stayed up late to watch til the end....
a game that did not conclude until 1am Terre Haute time

Bradley won 10-0 but Missouri State sure helped out...
two really critical errors - one on a totally routine fly ball that the Missouri State left fielder nonchalanted and didn't even know he had flubbed it until he began his trot back to the dugout and then reached in his glove only to find there was no ball there - it was back against the left field fence!

Cam Roegner went the distance giving up just 4 hits

Missouri State now has to come right back and play again at 12:30pm Eastern - facing Indiana State -
then the winner of that game faces Bradley at 7:30pm Eastern

If Bradley wins, they are in the Championship game but if they lose Friday nite, they play whoever beat them in an elimination game Sat. at 3pm to get to the Championship game.

[tornado]

Missouri state eliminates Indiana State - beating them 11-4
so tonight when Bradley plays Missouri State - it will be elimination for them only..

In the 2nd game today, Evansville eliminates SIU

So the Final Four is set..

Upper bracket is Dallas Baptist vs. Evansville - that game is just starting now...no score in 2nd inning, Aces left bases loaded in 1st inning
Lower bracket is Bradley vs. Missouri State - 7:30pm Eastern

[tornado]

Game underway
Missouri State goes down in order in top of the 1st
