The following Monday (Sept. 17) will mark the beginning of the Hinds baseball program's fall practice season which features six weeks of full-team practice. The practice period will feature a number of intrasquad scrimmages that are open to the public and to be played at Joe G. Moss Field in Raymond with the scrimmages taking place tentatively every Tuesday and Friday throughout the fall practice period. The first intrasquad scrimmage is scheduled for September 18.
