However, the Jags dropped their midweek game on Tuesday to New Orleans 2-1.<br \/><br \/>Brennan Wright still leads the way offensively for the Jags with a .383 batting average and 41 hits, but he has been in a slump as of late. Jaxon Shineflew has stepped up tremendously as the Jags\u2019 most reliable bullpen arm as he is 3-0 with a 1.78 ERA and has two saves on the season.<br \/><br \/>The Chanticleers are on a hot streak as of late as they have won their last eight games and 12 of their last 13. Coastal Carolina is perfect so far in conference play with a 9-0 record, and they are 21-7 overall.<br \/><br \/>The Chanticleers are no strangers to going on long win streaks as last year they went on a 26-game winning streak that helped propel them to the national championship where they would come up short against LSU.<br \/><br \/>Coastal Carolina is aggressive on the bases as well as they have 60 stolen bases, which is twice as many as South Alabama has.<br \/><br \/>This series will take place from Thursday through Saturday, rather than Friday through Sunday.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>The South Alabama Jaguars take on the top team in the Sun Belt Conference against the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers on Easter Weekend.
