Baseball season is in full swing at the University of San Diego! The USD Toreros are one of the premier college baseball programs in the country and are once again nationally ranked with a roster packed with All-American and All-Conference selections. Picked as the favorite to win the West Coast Conference, the Toreros are led by All-American Third Baseman Kris Bryant. Kris currently leads the nation in home runs and is a projected first round Major League Baseball draft pick. He is also fast approaching the USD single season home run record. Kris joins other impact players like NCAA doubles leader Catcher Dillon Haupt, 2012 Freshman All-American Shortstop Andrew Daniel, and 2013 Preseason All-American Pitcher Michael Wagner.
The 2013 season also highlights the grand opening of Fowler Park. This brand new, state of the art ballpark is already considered one of the best college baseball venues in the country. Fowler Park will play host to a number of top regional and conference opponents in the coming months including Pepperdine, Cal State Fullerton, and UC Santa Barbara.
The University of San Diego also offers a number of special events and promotions for our baseball fans. All Friday home games are Five Dollar Fridays where tickets are just half-price at $5 each! Parking is free and there are no bad seats. Also be sure to play the free Lucky Numbers game at every home game to win USD gear like beanies and t-shirts as well as gift cards to local restaurants like Tio Leo’s, Sushi Freak, and Jersey Mike’s.
This week the Toreros welcome the nationally ranked Oregon State Beavers to Fowler Park for three games: Thursday, March 28th at 6pm, Friday, March 29th at 6pm, and Saturday, March 30th at 1pm.
