Rutgers Baseball (24-20, 7-11) stands one and a half games behind Michigan State (17-26, 8-9) for the 8th and final Big Ten conference tournament berth. Maryland (21-27, 6-11) is a half game behind Rutgers as both teams are battling one another to reach postseason play. The two teams square off in College Park, Maryland beginning at 6:30 pm today on BTN plus.
Michigan State has a tough remaining schedule as they welcome 1st place Minnesota this weekend and fourth place Ohio State next weekend to close out the regular season. Rutgers and Michigan State are not likely to end up in a tie because Michigan State only currently has 23 games on the schedule, not 24.
