Live Score Updates: Ole Miss Baseball Hosts Little Rock in Midweek Bout

The Ole Miss Rebels and Little Rock Trojans are doing battle on the diamond on Tuesday afternoon.

The Ole Miss Rebels became red-hot offensively over the weekend, scoring a combined 37 runs in the final two games of its series against the High Point Panthers. Now, they look to carry that momentum into this week.

The Rebels have two midweek games this week before playing host to the Iowa Hawkeyes over the weekend, and the first of those meetings comes on Tuesday afternoon against the Little Rock Trojans.

Little Rock enters Tuesday's game on the heels of a series win over Illinois State, and it also won a midweek game over Memphis after dropping its opening series against Wichita State on the young season.

This will mark the fifth installment of a 13-game homestand for the Rebels. Follow along below for live updates of the action from Swayze Field.
