QUEENS, N.Y. – Fresh off its third straight series win, the St. John's baseball team will take on Wagner and Central Connecticut State in a pair of midweek games on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon, respectively.
The Red Storm (10-12) will head to Staten Island, N.Y., to battle the Seahawks on Tuesday at SIHU Community Park, before returning home to play host to the Blue Devils at Jack Kaiser Stadium. First pitch for both contests is set for 3 p.m. Tuesday's matchup will be streamed on NEC Front Row, with Wednesday's game being streamed to FloSports.

The Johnnies are coming off their third straight series win, this time taking two of three games against Winthrop (L 1-15, W 20-15, W 11-9) at The Winthrop Ballpark in Rock Hill S.C. With the pair of wins, St. John's has now won nine of its last 11 games, dating back to its 11-3 win over NJIT on March 8.
Jace Jeremiah and Luke Orbon both registered batting averages over .400 last weekend, as Jeremiah paced the squad with a .467/.467/.533 slash line on a team-best seven hits and five RBIs. The infielder also scored three runs, smacked a double and stole a base against the Eagles. Orbon impressed last weekend, slashing .429/.467/.429 with six hits, four runs, three RBIs and a stolen base.
Jackson Tucker, Jayder Raifstanger, Jared Beebe and Sean Britt all batted over .300 in Rock Hill, S.C. Tucker and Raifstanger each scored five runs and smacked five hits. Tucker also stole three bases in the series, bringing his team-best total to 16, which ranks 21st in the Nation.
In the Red Storm's 20-15 win in game two of last weekend's series, the team's 20 runs and 22 hits marked the most by the program since the 2023 season. Tucker was tremendous on Saturday, scoring a career-high five runs, the most by a member of the Red Storm since Jamie Galazin scored the same amount against UConn on March 16, 2018. Beebe reached base in all seven appearances at the plate, totaling four hits, two walks and a hit-by-pitch with two RBIs and two scores.
Down nine after the third inning, St. John's rallied back for the second day in a row, using an eight-run seventh inning to drop Winthrop, 11-9, in Sunday afternoon's rubber match. Shaun McMillan was integral in the Red Storm's comeback, totaling a team-best and season-high four RBIs with two runs on two hits, including his team-leading fourth homer of the year. Tyler Longoria and Sam Mettert were phenomenal out of the bullpen, combining for six scoreless innings.

The Red Storm leads the all-time series 61-12 and boasts a 29-10 mark against the Seahawks in Staten Island.
