Bulldogs Face Owls Sunday At Noon In Free Exhibition At Foley Field
November 02, 2023 | Baseball
ATHENS-----The University of Georgia baseball team will battle Kennesaw State in a free 14-inning exhibition Sunday at Foley Field starting at noon.
*Gates will open at 11 a.m. and will be free admission.
*The concession stands will be open and selling various ballpark treats and beverages so no outside food or drink will be allowed.
*Due to ongoing construction at Foley Field, the Bulldogs will occupy the third base dugout while the Owls will use the first base dugout. When the 2024 season begins in February, the Bulldogs will return to the first base dugout.
*Representatives from the UGA Bookstore will be on site and selling Georgia Bulldog merchandise.
A crowd of 6,235 watched the Bulldogs battle Florida in a 10-inning exhibition last Friday in Jacksonville at 121 Financial Ballpark. Ike Cousins head baseball coach Wes Johnson said he liked the way the Bulldogs competed against the Gators, who finished as the 2023 College World Series runner-up to LSU (Johnson served as the Tigers pitching coach last year).
"Florida is going to be really good on the mound," said Johnson. "You look at our at bats, and the actual result of racking up hits and runs wasn't there. However, my biggest takeaway was how we competed in the box. Also, we saw some heart rates change a little bit from what we've seen out here in our scrimmages which is what you expect. I think it's going to be good this week to get them back out there as we've worked on some things already to combat that and see how they are. I saw a lot of positives out on the mound, and we'll throw one or two more guys this weekend that didn't throw last weekend.
"I constantly tell our guys, there's always another level, so don't be satisfied where you're at now," Johnson added. "We got our foundation. We're in a good spot, and we have time to get some of our guys more comfortable in their roles."
Sunday's exhibition will conclude fall workouts for the Bulldogs who have been practicing since the end of September. Last month, the Owls defeated Georgia Tech in an exhibition in Atlanta.
