The baseball team hosts its last regular season games this week at Curtis Granderson Stadium.

The Flames take on Wright State in their last three-game series of the season, beginning with a game at 4:05 p.m. Thursday.

Other games are scheduled for 11:05 a.m. Saturday and 12:05 p.m. Sunday.

The Flames (23-26, 14-10 Horizon League) suffered a double setback after dropping two games, 5-4, and 9-4 at Wright State Friday. The two losses allowed Wright State to clinch the Horizon League regular season title and dropped UIC to third place in the standings, a half-game behind Milwaukee, with five games remaining.
