Louisiana Tech will play its first road series of the season at FIU this weekend.
Thursday | 5:30 PM
Friday | 5:30 PM
Saturday | 11:00 AM
All 3 games will be on ESPN+/SportsTalk 97.7 FM.
Lane Burroughs loves to talk about how talented FIU always is, but I love to talk about all the “names” they like to recruit. Orlando Hernandez’s son is a reliever for them. Joel Pineiro’s son is a starting pitcher for them. AJ Puk’s brother is a starting pitcher for them. They love some good pedigree, I guess.
Offensively, the Panthers have been pretty good hitting .290 and averaging over 7 runs per game.
On the mound, FIU has an era nearing 6. They walk a bunch of guys, and they hit a TON of guys.
Should be a good road test this weekend. Need to win this series.
First pitch is scheduled for 5:30 PM on Thursday night.
