Series Notes & What To Watch For:
- Gametracker, live video and live chat will be available for Tuesday's game at www.sfajacks.com.
- Junior Bryson Myles has established himself as not only one of the best in the SLC, but in the nation with the numbers he has put up this season. Myles finished the weekend with 45 stolen bases and 89 hits, both marks that rank him atop the SLC. His 45 swipes also lead the nation, and has made Myles the first SLC player since 1997 to swipe 40 bags in a season. He is also on pace to become the first SLC player since 1995, and only the second all-time, to lead the league in hits and steals in the same season.
- SFA has not allowed a home run at Jaycees Field this season, spanning 245.0 innings on its home turf. Conversely, SFA has hit 22 of its 29 homers on the year away from Jaycees Field.
- Lumberjack stopper Jason West has eight saves this season and needs just one more to tie his career-high mark of nine set last year. Currently, he sports 18 career saves, which is second all-time at SFA, just three shy of Richard Folmer's school record of 21 career saves.
- The 'Jacks have won 12 of the last 13 meetings with the Broncs, including each of the last four meetings. SFA took both games vs UTPA last year, winning one game both on the road and at home.
- SFA is still chasing the all-time wins mark in program history, and is just four wins shy of the 34 victories that were posted in both 2010 and 1984.
