A total of four matches are scheduled for day four with Fox Sports 1, Fox Sports Plus, Fox Sports GO, TSN2 and TSN GO among the networks providing live streaming coverage of all four encounters.

At the Gdynia Stadium CONCACAF giants, Mexico will seek to avoid a second successive defeat when they take on Japan in a Group A match at 9:30 am ET.

Japan, which played to a 1-1 draw Ecuador in the opener, will be looking to stay close to the top of the group with a win and the Samurai Blue are confident about picking up the three points.

Also in Group B, Ecuador will face Italy in a game that promises to be entertaining.

A victory for Gli Azzurrini, who finished third at the U-20 World Cup in 2017, would see them booking a place into the next round.

HOOVER, Ala. – The 2019 SEC Baseball Tournament continues with the semi-final games at Hoover Met. Stadium in Alabama on Saturday with No. 1 seed Vanderbilt among the teams in action.

The pair of fixtures will see defending SEC Baseball Tournament champion and current No. 7 seed Ole Miss taking on No. 3 seed Georgia in the first game, while the top-seeded Vanderbilt will battle against No. 5 LSU in the second encounter.

Live on the SEC Network, WatchESPN and ESPN3 at 2:00 pm ET, Ole Miss will aim to play in the championship game for a second successive year when they lock horns with Georgia.

The Rebels moved into the semi-finals after coming from behind to eliminate Arkansas 3-2 on Friday.

Ole Miss trailed for the entirety of the game, but stepped up in the bottom of the eighth inning and plated two runs to advance.

Meanwhile, the seeded Bulldogs, who beat No. 6 seed Texas A&M and the Razorbacks so far in the SEC Baseball Tournament, enter this meeting full of confidence and will be hoping to stay undefeated.

With Thursday’s 3-1 win over Arkansas, Georgia extended its winning streak to six games and are 44-14 overall on the season.

“It was a well-played game by both teams and the starting pitchers did a good job. Connor Tate gave us some life with another big pinch-hit RBI-double and Patrick Sullivan had a huge at bat to give the lead,” said Ike Cousins head coach Scott Stricklin.

“Those two hits gave us some momentum, and our bullpen took over. That’s the best Ryan Webb has been, and that’s a good sign because we lost him for about six weeks during the season. He didn’t’ want to come out, and we went to Aaron Schunk and he closed it out. “

In the meantime, LSU will be looking to get the better of top seed Vanderbilt when the two powerhouses clash in the second semi-final game at 4:30 p.m. ET.

The Tigers impressively posted a 12-2 win over the third-ranked Mississippi State to advance.

LSU, which improved its overall record to 37-23 on the second, is reaching the SEC Baseball Tournament semi-finals for the seventh-straight year.

The 2017 champions will need to be at their best when coming up against a Vanderbilt team, which stifled Mississippi State’s offense on Thursday to secure a 1-0 win to advance.

The victory saw the Commodores improving to 47-10 on the season overall, while securing their 20th win in the last 21 games.

NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 Schedule, Stream, Live TV Channels: March 28

by Leave a Comment

Anaheim, CA — The college basketball NCAA Tournament resumes on Thursday with the Sweet 16 round and here are the schedule, times and television channels for the list of games.

Today’s schedule includes four games with two No. 1 seeds hoping to stay alive in the NCAA Tournament.

The action gets underway at 7:09 PM ET at Honda Center in Anaheim, Califonia, where top-seed Gonzaga meets No. 4 seed Florida State will meet in a rematch of last season’s Sweet 16, which was won by the Seminoles.

Live coverage of this West Region round of 16 game will be on CBS, while NCAA.com will provide live online streaming coverage for those who are on the go.

The Bulldogs (32–3) booked their place in the Sweet 16 with wins over Fairleigh Dickinson and Baylor in the first and second round.

Florida State (29-7), meanwhile, brushed aside Vermont and Murray State in the earlier rounds and will be hoping to do a repeat over Gonzaga for a second consecutive year.

Gonzaga comes into this game averaging 88.6 points per game and giving up 60.0 at the other end, while the Seminoles are scoring 75.4 PPG and allowing 65.5 PPG.

Florida State could be without Phil Cofer, who missed the first two games of the tournament because of a foot injury. He is also dealing with the death of his father, who had died after a long illness.

“We’re going to respect Phil during this tragedy and the passing of his father,” FSU coach Leonard Hamilton was quoted as telling Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

“He knows where we are, and we know where he is. We’re here for him.”

The other No. 1 seeded team in action on Thursday is Virginia, which faces Pace-12 Tournament champion and the 12th-seeded Oregon at KFC Yum! Center in Louisville, Kentucky.

Coverage of this game is at 9:57 PM and it is live on TBS. NCAA.com is also providing online streaming coverage.

Oregon enters this game with a just a 7.0 percent chance of beating Virginia (31-3), according to ESPN’s Basketball Power Index.

The Ducks (25-12) come into this game on a 10-game winning streak and could be very difficult for the Cavaliers.

Virginia, in the meantime, looks confident so far in the tournament, but coach Tony Bennett has been busy preparing his team for the tougher fixtures.

The Cavaliers were dumped from the tournament in the first round last season and started a little shaky against No. 16 Gardner-Webb this season before erasing a 14 point deficit in the first half to win that game.

Also in action in the Sweet 16 today are the clashes between No. 2 seed Tennessee and No. 3 Purdue at 7:29 PM on TBS at KFC Yum! Center, as well as the second-seeded Michigan battle against No. 3 seed Texas Tech at Honda Center at 9:39 PM.
