Little Rock concludes its Louisiana road trip today with a late-afternoon contest against Louisiana-Monroe. First pitch for the Trojans (3-3) and Warhawks (4-2) from Lou St. Amant Field in Monroe is slated for 4 pm. There is no live stream of the contest but you can listen to the game online at

Â
The Trojans are looking to bounce back from an 0-3 trip to Thibodaux, La. last weekend, where host Nicholls State swept all three games. Little Rock dropped the opener Friday, 7-6, then fell on the wrong side of the score during both games of Saturday's doubleheader, 4-1 and 8-6.
Â
The Warhawks have yet to play away from home this season, winning two of three against Eastern Illinois, besting Grambling in a run-rule win, and splitting two against Houston Christian over the weekend. The final game of the series was canceled due to weather.
Â
Today's game is the 93
rd meeting between the two schools, with ULM holding a 50-42 edge in the series. Little Rock is just 14-38 in Monroe, but won last year's contest on the road, 4-2. The Trojans have won six of the last seven meetings between the teams.
Â
Little Rock returns home for the next four games, hosting Memphis on Wednesday before a three-game weekend series against Murray State at Gary Hogan Field.
