Sooners to Face Texas Rangers Squad Tuesday

NORMAN – The Oklahoma baseball team will play host to the Texas Rangers Instructional League squad at 6 p.m. Tuesday at L. Dale Mitchell Park. Admission is free and concessions and restrooms will be open. Gates to Mitchell Park open at 5 p.m.

This will be OU's first exhibition scrimmage against outside competition this fall. The Rangers instructional team is on an exhibition tour against college programs this week that includes scrimmages against Oklahoma State, Arkansas and TCU.

The Sooners are entering their sixth season under head coach Skip Johnson and the OU roster includes 16 returning players and 31 newcomers for the fall semester. Seven newcomers are transfers from a four-year school and 12 others transferred from a junior college. The OU roster features four catchers, 10 infielders, nine outfielders and 26 pitchers.

Coming off the program's 11th NCAA College World Series appearance and a Big 12 tournament championship, Oklahoma began fall workouts last month in preparation for the 2023 spring season.

Oklahoma continues fall workouts through early November. OU will play McLennan College in an exhibition scrimmage on Oct. 22, and the intrasquad world series is slated for Oct. 30, Nov. 1 and Nov. 5.
