Eager to see the new-look ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ baseball team? You won’t have to wait until next year.
ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ will participate in the upcoming Mexican Baseball Fiesta at Kino Stadium. The UA will face Yaquis de Obregon in the second game of a doubleheader on Sunday, Oct. 3. The game will follow the 3 p.m. contest between Mexicali and Navojoa.
"This game is a great opportunity for our program to connect with the Tucson community while also competing at the highest level," first-year ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ coach Chip Hale said in a news release. "Playing against a quality opponent in Obregon will give us a great early evaluation of our roster and present our freshman class with their first taste of performing in front of a large, engaged crowd."
This marks the second time the UA has participated in the Mexican Baseball Fiesta. The ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ played Naranjeros de Hermosillo in 2018.
