Ole Miss baseball score updates vs LSU: Rebels visit Tigers in crucial SEC series
Ole Miss baseball will be out to score a crucial series win when it travels to Alex Box Stadium for a series against LSU beginning on Thursday.
The Rebels (27-25, 11-16 SEC) took two out of three games from Texas A&M last weekend to stay in the hunt for an NCAA Tournament bid. They fell at Southern Miss on Tuesday.
LSU, like Ole Miss and Mississippi State before it, has struggled in its defense of its 2023 national championship. The Tigers (33-20, 10-17) dropped a series at Alabama last weekend. They did not play a midweek game.

Game 1: LSU 5, Ole Miss 1
LSU pounced on Ole Miss starter Riley Maddox, who allowed five runs in 3.1 innings of work, to put the Rebels in an early 5-0 hole. Ole Miss' bullpen did what was required to keep the Rebels within striking distance, but their bats never got going. Judd Utermark's solo home run marked the only notch on the scoreboard for coach Mike Bianco's team, which went 1-for-12 with runners on base.
Game 2: LSU 4, Ole Miss 2
Once again, LSU benefited from a great start while the Rebels didn't get much out of their starting pitcher. The Tigers knocked Liam Doyle around for four runs in four-plus innings, while the Rebels didn't get to Luke Holman until Luke Hill's two-run homer in the sixth. Ole Miss' bullpen stymied the LSU lineup to keep the Rebels in the game, but they couldn't cash in any of their opportunities in the later innings.
Game 3: LSU 9, Ole Miss 3
The Rebels were out of this game by the fourth inning, when Tommy White hit a grand slam to cap off a six-run inning. Ole Miss didn't score until the sixth inning, and by that time the Tigers had already stretched out a 9-0 lead.
