Bulldogs Set For Georgia Tech Friday

ATHENS-----Georgia starts a stretch of five games in five different parks Friday when undefeated No. 16 Georgia Tech visits Foley Field. First pitch will be at 6:02 p.m. (SECN+) and a limited number of bleacher seats are available.

The Bulldogs (6-2) wrap up a nine-game home stand with the Yellow Jackets (9-0) Friday before heading to Tech's campus Saturday for a 2 p.m. contest (ACC Network Extra). On Sunday, the teams will square off at Coolray Field in Lawrenceville at 3 p.m. in the 20^th annual Spring Baseball Classic to benefit Children's Healthcare of Atlanta.

The Bulldogs swept the 2020 series. In the Spring Baseball Classic, Georgia holds a 13-6 edge including 2-0 at Coolray Field.

Tech will counter with junior RHP Dawson Brown (1-0, 8.31 ERA), TBA on Saturday and redshirt-sophomore RHP/OF Jackson Finley (1-0, 1.00 ERA; .545-6-16).
