For the second-straight Southeastern Conference ballgame, the Bulldogs found a way to come back after being down.

Mississippi State head baseball coach John Cohen knows what it's like to be around one of the great closers in school history.
Pete Young, one of Cohen's teammates at MSU, was pretty good when he came into the game to close down a game from 1987-89.
With the help of back-to-back eight save seasons in 1988 and 1989, Young was able to save 19 games during his career with the Bulldogs.
