It took the entire first half of the season, but the Lincoln baseball team appears to have things heading in the right direction.

Fresh off a very competitive doubleheader Sunday at Missouri Western, which was capped by a victory in the second game, the Blue Tigers kept the momentum going in a home doubleheader Tuesday against Truman State University.

After a 4-2 victory in the opener gave Lincoln its first winning streak of the season, the Blue Tigers fell victim to 13 runners left on base while losing the nightcap 11-5.
