BIRMINGHAM - The UAB baseball team will start their five game home stand tomorrow night against Jacksonville State. The two teams played earlier this year in a 14-3 win for the Gamecocks. The Blazers will also host Charlotte in an American Athletic Conference series this weekend.
UAB is coming off of a series loss to UTSA where they won the first game, but lost the next two. The Blazers have scored 218 runs allowing opponents to score 245. UAB has stolen 47 bases throughout the year being efficient on the base pads.

On the mound, Brooks House (7.15) will make his 4th start and 14th appearance. House last made a start against Alabama where he went just one inning giving up two home runs and four hits. House has been one of the consistent midweek guys ever since Isaac Warrick got injured in week two.
