Tuesday night marks a pivotal moment for Texas State baseball as they hit the road to face I-35 rival UTSA in the final midweek game of the regular season. With postseason implications on the line, this matchup is more than just another game—it's a chance for both teams to bolster their NCAA tournament resumes.

The Bobcats already own a 7-2 victory over the Roadrunners earlier this season, but UTSA has been on a tear since. The Roadrunners are charging toward the regular-season title and lead their conference in runs scored, making them a formidable opponent. A win here would give either team a significant boost as selection Sunday approaches.

Texas State has shown resilience after losing infielder Dawson Park following the South Alabama series. Since then, the Bobcats have turned things around, picking up a win over Baylor and sweeping Arkansas State. Their RPI has climbed to 41, and with a strong finish and a solid showing in the Sun Belt tournament, an at-large bid is within reach—especially given the conference's overall strength.

UTSA sits at 50th in RPI, but the path to an at-large bid is trickier. The American Athletic Conference ranks below the Sun Belt in overall RPI, meaning the Roadrunners may need to win their conference tournament to secure a spot in the NCAA field.

Here's a look at the starting lineups for tonight's showdown:

Texas State Bobcats
1. RF Rashawn Galloway
2. DH Manny Salas
3. LF Jaquae Stewart
4. C Clayton Namken
5. CF Bennett Fryman
6. 2B Justin Vossos
7. 3B Chase Mora
8. SS Brady Boles
9. 1B Tanner Carson
