ST. LOUIS – ESPN has notified the Missouri Valley Conference that Friday's ESPNU baseball telecast will now feature Illinois State hosting #23 Indiana State at Duffy Bass Field in Normal, Ill. The ESPNU production will be shown at 1 p.m. ET. Roxy Bernstein (play-by-play) and Xavier Scruggs (analyst) will call the action.
The Missouri Valley Conference postponed the DBU-Missouri State baseball four-game series (Friday-Sunday, April 9-11) at Hammons Field in Springfield, Mo., due to positive COVID-19 test results within DBU's Tier I personnel, which consists of student-athletes, coaches, managers and staff. Friday's game between the Patriots and Bears was originally slated to air on ESPNU as one of The Valley's selected games on the network.
