Ole Miss baseball alters schedule for weekend series against Florida

Ole Miss baseball has tweaked the schedule for this weekend's SEC series against Florida due to the threat of inclement weather in Oxford.

The first game of the series, scheduled for Friday, has been postponed in favor of a doubleheader on Saturday.

The first game of that doubleheader will begin at 1:30 p.m., with the second game following one hour after it concludes. Both games are still scheduled to be nine innings.

Tickets for Friday's postponed game will be good for the second game of the doubleheader, according to the official Twitter account for the Ole Miss ticket office. Those who held tickets for Saturday's game will gain entry to the first game of the twin billing.

The final game of the series is still scheduled for Sunday at 1:30 p.m.. All three games will air on SEC Network+.

Ole Miss (15-6, 0-3 SEC) comes into this series looking for its first conference win after being swept by Vanderbilt to open SEC play last weekend. Florida (19-4, 2-1) took two out of three from Alabama in its first SEC series.
