Nevada Game Notes 
RENO, Nev. - Riding the nation's longest winning streak and the program's longest win streak in 20 seasons, the Nevada baseball team looks to stay hot with a four-game road trip this week. The Wolf Pack (28-20, 16-8) travels to New Mexico (32-18, 17-7) for a three-game series prior to meeting Grand Canyon (22-24-1) in nonconference play.
Nevada and UNM will meet, May 13-15, at Santa Ana Start Field in Albuquerque, N.M. First pitch times are set for 5 p.m. PT on Friday and Saturday and noon on Sunday.
The series will be a vital conference clash as the Wolf Pack trails the Lobos by one game in MW standings, while both teams trail conference leader Fresno State. The series history between the Pack and Lobos is tied at 13-13, while UNM took two games in a three-game series at Peccole Park earlier this year.
Nevada will then close out its nonconference schedule on Tuesday, May 17 at Grand Canyon. First pitch is set for 2 p.m. PT at Brazell Stadium in Phoenix, Ariz. It will be senior day for GCU. Nevada leads the series history, 11-2. The Pack last played the Lopes in 2014.
All four games this week will be broadcast on the Wolf Pack Radio Network, which is available on 1060 AM and on portal.stretchinternet.com/nevada. All three conference games at New Mexico will also be streamed live on the Wolf Pack Network, powered by Campus Insiders.
