PITCHING MATCHUP: LHP Taber Fast (0-0, 8.44 ERA) vs. TBD
-First matchup since...2019 when the Red Raiders hosted NMSU in 2019 and met in Midland for a neutral site later that season. It's the first two-game homestand with the Aggies since 2016.
-Nine straight over...The Aggies. Tech has also won 15 of the last 16 with the lone loss coming in the 2016 season.
-New Mexico State has games with...Nebraska, TCU, Dallas Baptist, Arizona (home & home mid-week), so they could help you out a bit from an RPI perspective.
-Aggies starting catcher is...Nick Gore, who carries a whopping .439/.515/.825 triple slash with ten extra base hits and 30 RBIs, the best hitter on a strong offense thusfar.
-NMSU is averaging...11.06 runs per game. An extremely prolific offense for the Aggies thusfar, so we could be in for a slugfest tonight.
-Tonight is...throwback night. Clean jerseys & a free t-shirt at the gate for the first 500 fans.
