A few minutes before No. 25 Louisiana baseball was set to take on No. 24 Cincinnati at 6 p.m. CT in Game 2 of the Starkville Regional, UL Athletics announced that the start time had been delayed due to rain.
The new start time is 7:06 p.m. No tarp has been placed on the field at Polk-Dement Stadium as of yet as officials in Starkville are still monitoring the weather. The Ragin' Cajuns and the Bearcats were set to play against each other for the first time in program history.

The Cajuns (39-23) clawed their way into an at-large bid and the No. 3 seed in a familiar regional site while the Bearcats (37-20) come into the tournament hot as well, earning the No. 2 seed. The winner of this matchup will play the host, No. 12 Mississippi State while the loser will face the No. 4 seed in the bracket, Lipscomb.
