Cincinnati remained in first place in the American Athletic Conference standings after the Bearcats picked up their fourth straight series win last weekend. Tulane sits a half-game out of first, while East Carolina is a game out entering a key series with the Bearcats this weekend.
Before league play resumes, however, an important stretch of midweek games awaits teams from The American. Tulane will take center-stage Tuesday night as the 20th-ranked Green Wave hosts No. 8 LSU at a sold-out Turchin Stadium. Tulane was a 7-1 winner against the Tigers March 29 in Baton Rouge, while the Green Wave enters Tuesday's game riding a four-game winning streak.
