Jack Anderson fired a seven-inning one-hitter with four strikeouts in a 12-0 win over SIUE on Tuesday at Duffy Bass Field. 

The seven-inning one-hitter is the first for the Redbirds since Steve Heilenbach threw one on 5/1/2013 against Webster. 

Anderson conceded a second-inning single and a pair of walks but induced two double plays to face one above the minimum, seeing 22 SIUE batters for Illinois State (17-22, 7-5 Missouri Valley Conference). His seven innings pitched are a career-high. 

Seniors Jordan Libman and Joe Butler and Juniors Aidan Huggins and junior Jeremy Gaines each recorded multiple RBIs to lead the Redbird offense. Huggins blasted a 422-foot home run to left field. 

Libman opened the scoring with an RBI single before a 422-foot home run by Huggins to put ISU up, 3-0. 

The Cougars (19-17 overall, 9-9 OVC) walked 10 Redbird batters. 

The 'Birds are on a four-game winning streak, their longest of 2021.

Illinois State is scheduled to travel to Valparaiso for a four-game conference series over April 30-May 2.
