The only non-conference matchup between Mississippi State and Ole Miss in baseball is upon us. As our team prepares to take Trustmark Park in front of a, hopefully, packed house, the weather might play a factor in the preparation of the team. This game is more important than you think as Ole Miss’s RPI stands at 34. Compare that to Mississippi State’s RPI of 100, and you can see the obvious benefit of a neutral-site win Tuesday.
With the orientation of Trustmark Park being in play, wind direction is important to the play of both teams. Ole Miss relies on power more-so than small ball to score their runs.
