A Missouri eighth-inning home run tied the game at 3, but a Cade Doughty RBI single in the 10th lifted LSU to a 4-3 win over Missouri Friday night at Alex Box Stadium. 

LSU advances to 26-12 overall and 9-8 in conference play. Missouri moves to 22-14 overall and 5-12 in the SEC.

Josh Stevenson started the frame with an RBI double. Then Doughty, who was hitless to that point in the game, fell down in the count 0-2 but drove a 95 MPH fastball at the letters into the gap in left center, scoring Stevenson.

The two teams will meet for the series finale on Saturday, April 23, at 12:00 p.m. in Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field. The game will be broadcast on affiliates of the LSU Sports Radio Network and streamed on SEC Network+.

Riley Cooper (3-2) earned the win, tossing 1.1 innings. Cooper allowed only two hits, no runs and no walks with one strikeout.
