Mizzou Baseball Drops Border War in Front of Record Crowd

On Tuesday, Kansas defeated Missouri 11-8 in the latest edition of the baseball Border War, played before a school-record 3,207 fans at Taylor Stadium.
The Jayhawks established an early 4-0 lead by the third inning against Missouri starting pitcher PJ Green, who walked four batters in the first and struggled with control throughout.
Missouri scored eight runs in the fourth inning, featuring a 400-foot home run from Juliomar Campos, a two-run single from Kaden Peer, and a three-run triple from Blaize Ward to briefly lead 8-6.
A three-run home run by Kansas player Tyson Leblanc against reliever Eli Skidmore in the eighth inning regained the lead, handing the Tigers their fifth straight loss.
Missouri head coach Kerrick Jackson said the team is "struggling to find some consistency just all around" as they travel to Lexington, Kentucky, for a three-game series against Kentucky beginning Friday.
