CINCINNATI – The University of Cincinnati baseball program heads to Miami (Ohio) on Tuesday for a midweek battle vs. the RedHawks.
The game is set for a 3:00 p.m. start and will be streamed live on Chatterbox Sports.
This will be the 192nd meeting all-time between Cincinnati and Miami and the second meeting this season.
The previous meeting was a 12-3 win for the Bearcats on March 11. Miami started the scoring in that game with a two-run homer in the top of the first, but it was the Bearcats who took advantage of the long ball the best. Landyn Vidourek and Christian Mitchelle and Charlie Niehaus all slugged home runs, with Niehaus' grand slam in the sixth inning providing the biggest reaction of them all. It was the first home run of his career for the West Chester native.
Following Tuesday's game, Cincinnati will head to Lubbock, Texas for a three-game series at Texas Tech.

// NOTING THE UCF SWEEP
Cincinnati notched its first Big 12 sweep of the season over the weekend, winning all three games against UCF:
- The sweep was the first for the Bearcats over the Knights in series history, which began in 2014 when both were members of the American Athletic Conference.
- UC is now 2-0 in weekend series against UCF as members of the Big 12. Cincinnati took two out of three last year in Orlando.
- The Bearcats' ability to withstand adversity and find ways to get on base were the keys to the sweep. UC grabbed the lead in the eighth inning on Sunday and walked off the Knights on Saturday, and shut down a UCF bases-loaded rally in the win on Friday.
- At the plate, Cincinnati walked (22) more than it struck out (21) and posted a .457 on-base percentage across all three games.
- Kerrington Cross was unbelievable all weekend long, going 5-for-7 at the plate with four walks and four HBP, posting an otherworldly .813 on-base percentage for the series. While he did not record a hit on Sunday, he reached base four times (three HBP, one walk) to help set the tone for the Cincinnati offense.
- Cincinnati has now played 39 home games under head coach Jordan Bischel and holds a 29-10 record at home.
