Preview of Tuesday's ISU @ SLU

[bluepower]

ISU's next outing is Tuesday at 4:00 (ET) as they travel to St. Louis University to play the Billikens. Since he missed his Saturday start, Joe Rodriguez will start on the mound and I would suspect (as sycamores28 mused in another post) we'll see several pitchers (the Johnny All Staff approach perhaps) who would have pitched during one of the rained out games this past weekend.

Here's the preview article appearing at gosycamores.com. Be sure to also click on the game nots section in the upper left corner of the article:

The game will be played under mostly sunny skies with a game time temp of 60-degrees.

Last year, ISU withstood a late in the game rally to win 7-5 in Terre Haute.

The game will be available on WISU Radio and through Live Stats.

ISU's Robbie Ort was mentioned as a "notable performance" by the MVC for his hot bat in the two games this past week:

Robby Ort (INS) - Ort carried the Indiana State offense over their two games this past week, knocking in the first three runs against Eastern Illinois on Tuesday and tallying an RBI against Dayton on Friday. The freshman outfielder hit .500 (4-8) during the week with a team-best four RBI and two runs scored. Ort places second on the team this season with a .395 batting average and a .579 slugging percentage, while leading the team with 13 RBI.
