Baseball Announces Pair of Exhibitions for 2026 Fall Ball Slate

COLUMBIA, Mo. – Mizzou Baseball announced a pair of exhibitions for its 2026 fall ball schedule on Thursday afternoon. The Tigers will host Iowa on September 26 at Taylor Stadium to kick off the fall slate before welcoming Bradley to Taylor Stadium on October 17.

The Tigers are coming off a 2026 season that saw them improve their win total by eight games and double their SEC win total. Mizzou capped off the season with a win over No. 9 seed and 17th-ranked Ole Miss in the SEC Tournament to mark the first postseason win for the Tigers since 2017.

Head coach Kerrick Jackson and his staff attacked the transfer portal over the offseason and are credited with signing the No. 31 transfer portal class in the country, according to 64 Analytics, and No. 38 according to D1Baseball.

This will mark the second year in a row Mizzou has competed in a fall exhibition versus the Hawkeyes after making a trip to Iowa City a season ago. Iowa finished the 2026 season 10 games over .500 (33-23, 15-15 B1G) and picked up a win at the Big Ten Tournament.

Bradley is entering its second season under head coach Justin Dedman and will look to improve upon an 11-45 (6-18 MVC) campaign in 2027.

Below is the full fall schedule for the Tigers as of August 27:
