Baylor Game Notes
LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) - Following its first Mountain West Conference series win of the season, the UNLV baseball team will hit the road, traveling to the Lone Star state this week for four games in five days.

The Rebels (24-14, 4-7 Mountain West) will travel to Waco, Texas for a Tuesday night outing against the Baylor Bears before heading east to Fort Worth for a three-game set with rival TCU beginning Thursday night at Lupton Stadium.

UNLV's Friday night ace Tanner Peters (6-2) earned this week's Mountain West Conference Pitcher of the Week following his dominating performance over BYU last Thursday in the 7-2 series-opening win. The Simi Valley, Calif. native struck out 11 batters and did not issue a walk, allowing just three hits and two runs on the night.

Cory Ginther (0-0) will make his second start this season on Tuesday night at Baylor. Ginther has made six appearances for the Rebels this season and carries a 5.62 ERA in eight innings of work.

Tuesday's game is set for a 6:30 CT first pitch at Baylor Ballpark.
