The LSU baseball team looks to bounce back from a disappointing to SEC play with a non-conference showdown against an in-state rival.
The Tigers (14-5) meet the Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin Cajuns (12-4) at Zephyr Field in Metairie, La. on Tuesday night for the 13th annual Wally Pontiff Jr. Classic.
LSU will send freshman right-hander Cole McKay to the mound. McKay has struggled in limited action during his first year with the Tigers, posting a 5.40 ERA in 3.1 innings pitched.
Sophomore right-hander Evan Guillory gets the start for Louisiana-Lafayette. Guillory is 1-2 with a 2.95 ERA in 2016.
