BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- The Southern baseball team has had an unusually long break from games and especially Southwestern Athletic Conference games.The Jaguars hope the departure of week-long rain enables them to return to Lee-Hines Field and play a conference doubleheader against Arkansas-Pine Bluff at noon Sunday.
Southern (11-18, 8-6 SWAC) hasn’t played a game since splitting a nonconference doubleheader against Loyola last Saturday and hasn’t played a conference game since winning at Prairie View 8-7 on April 4 to complete a series sweep.
“We really need to play in the worst way,” coach Roger Cador said Saturday. “I hope we’re not rusty. We’ve just hit in the cages all week because we haven’t been able to get on the field.”
The Golden Lions (19-12, 13-3) lead the Western Division. They have won their last eight games, including a four-game sweep against Prairie View last weekend and a three-game sweep against Texas Southern the weekend before that.
