LSU expanding to full capacity in time for Arkansas baseball series

LSU will allow full capacity at its baseball stadium for the remainder of the regular season, beginning with Friday’s scheduled game against No. 1 Arkansas.

The decision follows a proclamation Tuesday from Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards that the state can return to 100% capacity at outdoor sporting events. The capacity at Alex Box Stadium is 10,326 and the Tigers have enjoyed one of the SEC’s best home-field advantages through the years.

LSU (25-15, 6-12 SEC) is 19-10 at home this season, and 2-7 at home in SEC play.

"We are excited about the opportunity to welcome our fans back in full force this weekend," LSU athletics director Scott Woodward said in a statement.
