SPRINGFIELD – Brock Lucas took a no-hitter into the seventh inning and Taeg Gollert drove in five runs for the second consecutive game to lead the Bears to a 9-1 victory over New Mexico State Saturday at Route 66 Stadium.
The Bears improved to 29-17 overall and 17-9 in Conference USA play while moving to 20-3 at home, reaching 20 home victories for the first time since 2017.
Mo State led 7-0 after five innings, with Caden Bogenpohl drawing his school-record 155th career walk in the second and then stealing home for a 1-0 lead. Bogenpohl broke Bill Mueller's career mark held since 1993 in 59 fewer games than Mueller.
The Bears broke it open with four in the third, getting an RBI single from Curry Sutherland and three-run home run by Gollert to make it 5-0.
After loading the bases in the fifth, Gabe Roessler walked to force a run and Jax Ryan added an RBI single for a 7-0 lead.
NMSU (19-30, 8-18) hit a leadoff single to break up Lucas' no-hit bid in the seventh and scratched one run across against the senior, who moved to 5-4 with 6.1 innings and five strikeouts against two hits allowed.
Gollert struck again in the seventh with a two-run homer, making him the 11th player in school history with 40 career dingers thanks to his third career multi-homer game.
Sutherland added another record when he was plunked by three pitches, tying seven others for the Missouri State single-game mark and pushing the team total to 81 to pass the previous season standard of 80 set in 2004.
Tyler Charlton (0.2) and Charlie Spoonhour (2.0) finished things on the mound to preserve the 9-1 win.
The Bears and Aggies conclude the series on Sunday at 10:30 a.m. at Meadow Park due to a conflict with the Springfield Cardinals game on Sunday afternoon. Admission is free to the home finale.
