Jay Johnson and the LSU Tigers will return to action on Saturday night at Alex Box Stadium for a Baton Rouge Regional clash against the Dallas Baptist Patriots.

After handling business on Friday against the Little Rock Trojans, the Tigers are one step closer to punching their ticket to Super Regionals.

“You can’t win the game and have the game over in the first inning,” Johnson said. “You can’t try to force it.  You’ve got to let the game come to you a little bit. 

" I thought we did that [Friday].  And when you have really good pitching and really good defense, it should allow your offense to play with great confidence.  I thought we played well tonight.  It was a good night for the Tigers on offense.”

Now, the Tigers will square off against Dallas Baptist on Saturday night at Alex Box Stadium in a winner's bracket clash.

What time do the Tigers play? What channel will LSU be on?
