How To Watch: Mississippi State Baseball versus Memphis
The Mississippi State Bulldogs are set to host the Memphis Tigers as they look to add momentum after their series win. This is a big week for the Bulldogs as they have a chance to prove to everyone they are one of the top teams in the country.
The Bulldogs were ranked 16 by Baseball America, and they face their first road of the season this weekend. However, they must take care of business against the Tigers.
MSU has yet to reach a point where they can feel safe in mid-week action, and if they want a chance to host in June they will need to dominate nonconference opponents.
