UL plays at Southern in Baton Rouge tonight with first pitch set for 6:00 PM. The game will be televised live on Cox Sports (channel 37 on Cox Cable).
The Cajuns have won 17 of their last 19 games. It's occurred since the second half of the season started April 6 at Northwestern State. That's the best mark in the Sun Belt and State of Louisiana and one of the best in the nation.
Comeback Kids: The Ragin' Cajuns have swept their last four Sun Belt series for a 12-game win streak in league play. That's vaulted UL from 4-8 and ninth in the standings to 16-8 and into a tie for second place.
Did You Know?: Louisiana's current string of 12 consecutive conference victories is a school record. The previous record was 10 set in 2006 and tied this season.
It's a Rematch: Louisiana and Southern meet for the second time this season. The teams met on March 16 at M.L. "Tigue" Moore Field in Lafayette. Louisiana exploded for 10 runs between the second and fourth innings to erase an early two-run deficit. Tyler Frederick and Greg Fontenot paced UL with three RBI apiece. Chase Traffica held the Jaguars to only one hit over his final five innings and the Cajuns cruised to a 13-2 victory.
