Expected pitching matchups for tonight's game

WVU: Chansen Cole (8-1, 2.71 ERA, 69 K, 25 BB, 69.2 IP)
TCU: Zack James (6-0, 3.49 ERA, 44 K, 17 BB, 56.2 IP)

Cole has been phenomenal all year, but is looking to go deeper in today's outing after going just five innings last week against Kansas. To his defense, he tossed 120 pitches the weekend before against Kansas State, so it was more of WVU being smart with him last week than anything else.

Pitching deep into games has been an issue for James in his last two starts, going just 3.2 innings against Oklahoma State (six earned runs) and 3.1 frames against Utah (three earned runs). He has failed to go five innings in nine of his fourteen starts on the year, so perhaps this will be the game the Mountaineers get the bats going and dig into the Frogs' bullpen.

Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook

For the third straight game this series, West Virginia enters as the favorite, but after last night's loss, the Mountaineers are heavy favorites at -238 on the moneyline; TCU is +180.
