Staring down two ranked teams and another power conference squad, Baylor baseball looks to turn some heads, bringing the Big 12’s best .342 batting average and 2.15 ERA into the Amegy Bank College Baseball Series at Globe Life Field in Arlington.

With a year under his belt, head coach Mitch Thompson enters year two with a new motto: “To be the best, you have to beat the best.” And the Bears will get a chance to do just that as the first month of their season features the most difficult schedule in Division I, based on last year’s win percentage and RPI.

In his second year at the helm, head coach Mitch Thompson is back on the Brazos River looking to defy expectations as Baylor baseball kicks off spring practice.

Texas Rangers left-handed pitcher Cody Bradford said he hopes to be a role model for future Baylor Bears.
