Following its second-straight SEC series win, the LSU Tigers baseball team will be back in action at Alex Box Stadium on Tuesday night for a midweek battle against Grambling before Tennessee comes to town for another tough three-game set.
The Grambling Tigers enter this one at just 9-14 on the year but are coming off a conference weekend sweep over Alcorn State. They’ve played just one SEC team this season, a 9-7 loss at Arkansas back on Feb. 21.
“You don’t ‘just win’ in college baseball,” coach Jay Johnson said in a release. “The game is not designed that way. Grambling has an athletic team, they play aggressive, and this is one of the more important games on their schedule. They swept their conference series (vs. Alcorn State) last weekend, and I know our players will be ready for the challenge. We got a little bit of a breather with a day off on Sunday, allowing us to practice and prepare today (Monday) for the game.”
The 21-3 (4-2 SEC) Tigers look to remain perfect in midweek games this season when Grambling comes to The Box. Here’s everything you need to know to watch this one.
