Shortstop Josh Smith back in LSU baseball lineup vs. Lamar

LSU fans will see a familiar face back on the field Tuesday night (April 24).

Tigers infielder Josh Smith, who has missed all but three games this season because of a stress reaction in his back and the complications surrounding his rehab, is back in the lineup for LSU's midweek contest against Lamar.

Smith played shortstop in the season-opening series against Notre Dame but will start Tuesday where he played all of last season - at third base.

Freshman Hal Hughes will continue to start at shortstop where he's done admirably in the field as Smith's replacement.
