Weather Shifts LSU Baseball Series Start Time
24 Apr
Summary
- LSU baseball series at Mississippi State moved up due to weather.
- The Tigers are currently 24-18 and fighting for a postseason spot.
- Star outfielder Jake Brown is out for the season with a broken bone.
The LSU baseball team has adjusted its series opener against Mississippi State, with first pitch now scheduled for Friday afternoon, April 24, 2026, at 3 p.m. CT. This change from the original 6 p.m. CT start is a proactive measure to circumvent anticipated inclement weather over the weekend. The series holds significant importance for LSU, who currently stand at 24-18 and are actively competing for a berth in the NCAA Tournament. The team, which began the season ranked No. 2, faces the challenge of improving its standing to secure a postseason spot.
Compounding LSU's challenges, the team will be without star outfielder Jake Brown for the remainder of the season. Brown suffered a broken hamate bone in a recent game against Texas A&M. This setback comes as LSU has struggled to secure SEC victories in recent weeks, having been swept in their last two conference series against Ole Miss and Texas A&M.
