Behind the bravura of third baseman Pat Rehm, the Mississippi State Bulldogs topped the Houston Cougars by the score of 13-11. Rehm was 1 for 2 with a home run, 3 walks, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 and driving in 5 for the Bulldogs. Picking up the save was Kenny Gill, his 4th. Mississippi State goes to 16-12, Houston to 10-18.

Noah Kate hit a bases-clearing triple off Sam Herring in the top of the eighth, which put the Bulldogs in front, 13-11. In addition to the triple, Kate had 2 singles and 2 walks, while going 3 for 4.

Postgame, Bulldogs manager Pat Sheffield praised Rehm. "Having Slow Motion in the lineup makes us a better team."
