WVU, Georgia Southern to Play Two Saturday: Odds, Pitching Probables, TV + More

Because of bad weather expected in the Statesboro area on Sunday, West Virginia (1-0) and Georgia Southern (0-1) have bumped the final game of this series up to today for a doubleheader.

First pitch for game one of the twin bill will begin at 2 p.m. on ESPN+. The second game will start approximately 30-45 minutes after the conclusion of game one.

On Friday night, it took a while for West Virginia's bats to heat up, but once they did, things got ugly for the Eagles.

The Mountaineers took the season opener from Georgia Southern by a score of 15-3 behind a 2-for-5 night from centerfielder Armani Guzman, who knocked in three runs and collected a pair of doubles. Two of those RBI came in a six-run sixth inning where WVU went from down one to up 8-5. Senior reliever Reese Bassinger did tremendous work out of the bullpen, stretching out 3.2 innings of scoreless ball, punching out five hitters while allowing just one hit.

With a strong Liberty team on deck for the Mountaineers, it would be huge to come away with a three-game sweep of the Eagles.

Here are today's probables on the mound for both teams and both games.

WVU: Maxx Yehl (Did not pitch in 2025)
GSU: Thomas Burke (0-1, 5.46 ERA, 25 K, 24 BB, 28.0 IP
