How to Watch: Mizzou Baseball at Florida

After playing four of the top six teams in the rankings to start conference play, the Missouri Tigers will finally catch a break and face unranked Florida.
It still won't be an easy fight. Mizzou will take on the Gators on their home field in Gainesville, Florida. To the Tigers's advantage, six of Florida's 11 conference losses have come at the Condron Family Ballpark.
The Tigers have suffered due to injuries all season and this series will be more of the same. The player that leads their offense, Jackson Lovich, has not played the past four games after facing a leg injury against UAPB.
They are also without much of their starting rotation and will be running out a second string, of sorts. Freshman Brady Kehlenbrink will take the mound for game 1 against the Gators and Kaden Jacobi is set as the game two starter. Both pitchers will make their fourth start of the season and possess ERAs above 9.
Mizzou and Florida both sit at the bottom of the SEC, with a combined one conference win between the teams. Both of them will get a chance to move up in the rankings.
Missouri will take the field at 6 p.m. CT on Thursday, April 10.
