HUNTSVILLE, Ala. – Alabama A&M baseball will return home this weekend to resume conference play with a three-game series against rival Alabama State.
 
The two programs will meet on Friday starting at 1 p.m., before they continue the series on Saturday at 2 p.m. and Sunday at 1 p.m. at the Bulldog Baseball Field.
A&M (10-12, 2-4) will be looking to get back in the win column after dropping three games last weekend on the road against Florida A&M. The Hornets enter play at 15-11 overall and 4-2 in SWAC play. When last seen, they dropped a midweek non-conference battle to Troy, 13-10, to end a four-game win streak.
 
ASU has dominated the series in recent history, as the Bulldogs took the previous meeting 10-7 in Huntsville last season to end a stretch of 10 straight losses dating back to 2021. Friday will be the first meeting between teams this season, as A&M will travel to Montgomery for another three-game swing in May.
 
Tommy Easley and 
Jalen Parker lead the Bulldogs offensively from the plate, with Easley holding a team-high .342 batting average, followed by Parker at .302. Easley, a senior from Acworth, Georgia, also leads the program in hits (26), runs (19), and RBI (19). Meanwhile, a pair of pitchers have multiple wins so far on the year, with 
Evan Crenshaw holding a 2-2 record in six appearances, followed by 
Noah Whitted who is 2-1, also in six appearances.
 
The Hornets, last year's SWAC Tournament Champions, are leading the SWAC in both team batting average at .307 and combined team ERA at 5.14. Individually, Randy Flores leads five plus-.300 batters with a .394 average, while both Omar Melendez (4-0) and Ricardo Rivera (4-0) have current ERAs of 1.46 and 1.67 respectively.
