Baseball: Lobos face big test as they host No. 7 Texas Tech

The University of New Mexico baseball team lost twice earlier in the season to Texas Tech in Lubbock, but UNM will get a chance to even things up with the Red Raiders as it hosts a two-game series on Tuesday and Wednesday at Santa Ana Star Field.

The home team met with the Red Raiders in a pair of single game competitions, once on Feb. 28 where the Lobos lost 7-2 and another on Apr. 11, losing 12-4. The overall series record between the two schools favors Texas Tech, with TTU holding a 71-45-1 advantage.

The Lobos (23-16-1, 14-2-1 MW) are coming off of a weekend series sweep of conference-foe UNLV, winning games one and two by a combined 18 runs – both with an identical 13-4 score.
