CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. – A pair of Cody Kelly home runs accounted for Missouri State's offense Tuesday in a 5-3 loss at Southeast Missouri State, as the Bears played their 33rd true road game of the season to tie the program's high-water mark set in 2003.
SEMO (26-23) scored twice without benefit of a hit in the second inning after loading the bases with walks, scoring the first run on a wild pitch and the second on an errant throw attempting to retire the lead runner at home.
Kelly's first home run left Capaha Field in the third inning and a 72-minute rain delay followed with the Bears trailing 2-1.
Upon resumption, neither offense mustered much momentum until the Redhawks used three singles, a walk and a hit batter in the seventh inning to score three times for a 5-1 lead.
Missouri State (19-29) answered in the eighth as Tyler Epstein hit a leadoff single and Kelly followed with a two-run shot, his 11th of the season. Nick Rodriguez walked later in the frame to extend his reached base streak to 29 games.
Eight different MSU pitchers combined to hold SEMO to four hits but issued seven walks. SEMO's seven pitchers combined to strike out 18 Bears.
The Bears stay on the road for a Friday-Sunday series at Belmont (22-26, 9-12 Missouri Valley Conference).
