NEW ORLEANS -- Jackson State’s baseball team doesn’t have much time to turn its fortunes around.The 2014 season hasn’t been favorable for the reigning Southwestern Athletic Conference champions, which returned most of its lineup from a year ago. The Tigers are 10-17 since being swept by Alabama State in late March, and have been forced to overcome more than your average share of adversity (like the team’s bus catching fire en route to an away game).
Now the Tigers (27-23, 9-15 SWAC) have to play for their season, and will try to bounce out of a second-half slump during this week’s SWAC baseball tournament, which begins today at MLB Urban Youth Academy’s Wesley Barrow Stadium in New Orleans.
