Little Rock Hosts First Midweek Match Up Against Memphis

LITTLE ROCK- The Little Rock Trojans host the Memphis Tigers for the first midweek contest of the 2024 season. First pitch is set for 3 p.m. and will be streamed on ESPN+.

The Trojans come off a hard fought series against a strong Wichita State program which resulted in a 1-2 start to the 2024 season. The OVC preseason favorite will look to find their stride after only crossing the plate just 10 times in 3 games this past weekend. Head coach Chris Curry is excited to host another American Athletic Conference team to get the 2024 season underway.

Nico Baumbach looks to extend his team-high hit streak to 4 games after a strong outing in the opening series. Luke Pectol looks to continue his hot bat after notching a first inning home run on Sunday.

The Tigers hold the same record as the Trojans after going 1-2 against Jacksonville State this past weekend. The Tigers dropped 2 games in extra innings going 13 innings on Friday and 10 on Sunday. 

The Trojans and the Tigers have met 55 times in program history dating back to 1978. The last time these programs met was March 21, 2023 where the Tigers came out on top 3-5.

Tuesday's game is set for 3 p.m. Tuesday and will be streamed on ESPN+.
