Notes
Shortstop Jacob Jaye enters this series on a career-high six-game hitting streak, during which he is hitting 9 for 24 (.375) with two home runs and three multi-hit games.
The Keydets are 15-4 when outhitting their opponents this season, but when the opponent collects more hits, VMI is 3-19.
One reason for VMI’s 14-10 record at home this year has been the performance of David Geary, who is hitting .394 with 13 doubles and a .472 on-base percentage at home. The Keydets will look to improve their home ERA this weekend, however, as that sits at 6.17.
Next Time Out
Following this series, the Keydets travel to Richmond on April 26 to take on the VCU Rams. First pitch is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. at The Diamond.
Note: Game notes will be available Thursday evening.
