NEW ORLEANS – A two-game road trip was cut in half Tuesday when recent heavy rains in the Baton Rouge area forced postponement of a game at Southern, leaving the Northwestern State baseball team southbound for tonight’s visit to Tulane.
Inadequate field conditions on the grass surface at Southern’s Lee-Hines Field stalled the NSU-Southern contest.
The Demons-Jaguars matchup has been rescheduled for April 22 in Baton Rouge. Southern’s low-lying field not far from the Mississippi River was left unplayable because of severe weather that hit south Louisiana on Sunday.
The Demons were already southbound when the decision was made, and with a game tonight at Tulane, their road trip continued.
Northwestern (13-7) carries a six-game win streak into tonight’s game at Tulane (9-11). First pitch Is set for 6:30 p.m. with coverage on ESPN+.
