PHOENIX - Sun Devil Baseball will remain in the Valley for a "road" game this week, heading up the I-17 to take on Grand Canyon in a midweek non-conference tilt on Tuesday before returning home to play BYU in a Big 12 conference series beginning Thursday.
The Sun Devils just took two of three in a rather unprecedented series against Texas Tech. Game two of the series was paused late Friday night in the bottom of the seventh inning in a 7-7 tie as ASU had the bases loaded before the game was suspended to rain and field conditions.
The contest then resumed on Saturday afternoon as ASU worked two efficient at-bats to score the go-ahead runs in the seventh and take the second game and the series against Texas Tech after the 14-hour rain suspension.
Game two on Saturday and game three of the series saw the Sun Devils late game rally fall short as Texas Tech picked up the 12-8 win to avoid the sweep.
Freshman Landon Hairston has been on fire over the last six games. He is hitting .423 (11-26) with six extra-base hits, two home runs, 11 RBIs, nine runs scored and four multi-hit games amidst the hot-streak.
Hairston currently tops all qualified Sun Devils with a .476 on-base percentage and ranks third on the team in batting average, boasting a red-hot .353 mark.
The Sun Devils will make their way to Brazell Field at GCU Ballpark for Tuesday night action against the Antelopes of Grand Canyon. This will be the first of two home-and-home matchups between ASU and GCU as the two are set to meet again at Phoenix Municipal Stadium on May 13th.
ASU comes into the contest with a 4-2 record against GCU in the Willie Bloomquist era, and a 91-25 advantage all-time against the Lopes.
The return down I-17 will be followed by a three-game set against BYU kicking off on Thursday evening. The series will take place from Thursday-Saturday due to BYU's obligations to not play on Sundays.
The Sun Devils hold the all-time series at 46-14 coming into the matchups, but have lost six-straight to the Cougars as they aim for their first win over BYU since 2011.
All games this week will be streamed on ESPN+. All radio broadcasts will be over the local airwaves on KDUS AM 1060.
