Game Notes
San Marcos, Texas – Texas State returns home after five games on the road to host Texas A&M-Corpus Christi at Bobcat Ballpark over the weekend at 6:30 p.m. Friday, 2 p.m. Saturday and 12 p.m. Sunday.
The Bobcats fell, 7-3, in the first meeting between the teams this season but will have home field advantage this weekend. So far, the Bobcats are an even 5-5 at home while the Islanders are only 1-2 on the road.
There is a small difference in Texas State's approach this weekend as the usual Friday starter,
Kyle Finnegan will pitch Sunday, moving up
Taylor Black on Friday and
Scott Grist on Saturday. The trio will face Trevor Foss on Friday, Trevor Belicek on Saturday and Adam Hoelscher on Sunday.
It would be good for Texas State to pick up some wins and gain momentum as next weekend's series starts Western Athletic Conference play with a road trip to New Mexico State followed by a midweek game against Texas.
First, the Bobcats will have to find a way to stop the powerful top four of Texas A&M-Corpus Christi's lineup. Zach Tyalor, Kyle Danford, Eric Weiss and Jordan Lee are all hitting above .300 with Taylor topping the list at .391. The foursome has a combined 73 hits, nearly half of the Islander's total of 148.
