Parity is reflected for BYU baseball this week as it returns to league play following Tuesday’s rubber match when it hosts Utah.
The Cougars, 18-16 overall and 7-8 in the West Coast Conference, are three-and-one-half games out of first place with 12 league games remaining. How BYU emerges from hosting four games this week could jump-start a bid to get one of four spots in the league tournament next month.
Utah, now 9-28, is also looking for a rebound, having won two of its last 10 games since evening the series against BYU, 4-3, earlier this month in Salt Lake City.
