Sun Devil Baseball Weekly Preview – March 10-17


PHOENIXSun Devil Baseball will hit the road for a big test against a big rival down south before opening up the Big 12 era in the heart of Texas over the weekend.  


The Sun Devils went 4-0 at Phoenix Municipal Stadium this past week. They picked up a dominant midweek win over UNLV and then busted out the brooms to take all three games against Gonzaga, improving their overall record to 12-4. 



Kien Vu enjoyed quite the impressive week at the plate. The junior outfielder
posted a .500 average with four home runs, three doubles, four walks and nine RBI all in the leadoff spot for the Sun Devils. 

The pitching staff held it down as well, allowing just 16 hits in the four games over the week and surrendering only six runs. At 4.44, the Sun Devils have their lowest team ERA for any week in a season since they had a 3.23 ERA after six games in the 2023 season. 

ASU will head to Tucson to take on rival Arizona in a midweek matchup. Although they are in the same conference, the midweek tilt will not count towards conference play. The Sun Devils head into the matchup holding a 212-143 advantage in the all-time series since 1959. ASU will look to win its first midweek game in Tucson since 2019 (W, 10-7). 

The weekend ahead will officially begin Big 12 conference play as the Sun Devils travel into Fort Worth to take on TCU in a three-game set. This will be the first meeting between the two on campus grounds since 2017, with the all-time series deadlocked at 6-6. 

All games this week will be streamed on ESPN+. Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday’s games will be over the airwaves on KDUS AM 1060 with Friday’s game on KAZG 1440 AM
