How to watch No. 1 LSU baseball take on Central Arkansas on Tuesday night at The Box

After taking two of three games on the road this past weekend in their SEC opener against No. 11 Texas A&M, LSU — which remains No. 1 in all polls this week — returns to Alex Box Stadium for a midweek matchup against Central Arkansas before it hosts No. 6 Arkansas for a crucial home weekend series.

The Bears enter this game at 11-8 and have won their last four games including a sweep in their Atlantic Sun Conference opener over North Alabama.

“I know Central Arkansas is a great program that wins a lot of games, and that’s why they’re on our schedule,” coach Jay Johnson said in a release. “We want to play teams that have high winning percentages, because scheduling always goes back to RPI. They have a good approach at the plate, are well-coached, and it will be a good test. We’ll have to play well to win.”

LSU (18-2) will look to remain perfect in midweek games and take care of business against UCA before one of its biggest SEC series of the whole season. Here’s what you need to know to follow the game.
