In what hopefully will not be a trend, the Illini lost their fourth game in a row against #20 Missouri. Despite 3 Missori errors, they lost 6-2. It was a game of lost opportunities as they stranded 6 runners in scoring position.
Illinois remains first in the Big Ten but their lead has slipped to 3 games.
The last regular season series is at home this weekend. They play second-place Iowa. This is a BIG series for them.
