The LSU Tigers will return to Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field on Tuesday night with a midweek clash against the Grambling State Tigers up next on the docket.

After falling to the Vanderbilt Commodores in the SEC series opener this past weekend in Nashville, Jay Johnson and Co. will look to get back on track against an in-state foe.

“We have good players, and this is important to them. We are very much about the process and how we play, and I want them to keep growing up," Johnson said.

"I thought that we handled in-game adversity much better last week. I’m proud of the at-bats we took last weekend; it was a good step, and that’s trending in the right direction.”

Now, with first pitch inching closer, what's the latest buzz on the midweek clash in Baton Rouge?
