This young Rebel team has been a roller coaster so far this season. After sweeping a top-10 ECU squad, a ranked UNC-Wilmington team and taking two-of-three from Vanderbilt to open SEC play, No. 18 Ole Miss (15-9, 3-3) laid an egg in Lexington over the weekend, losing their first series of the year. After losing two in a row, they will need to shake the losses and get a W on Tuesday before welcoming Mississippi State to town on Thursday.
Ole Miss continues to struggle at the plate (.245 team average) and the poor approach and at-bats are piling up and making the margin for error for the Rebs’ elite pitching staff incredibly slim.
