With our new $49 million state-of-the-art ballpark opening this Fall 2018, we are calling all UK Baseball Alumni back to The Cliff one last time on May 11-13 to be a part of a special weekend in the history of our UK Baseball Program.  As we face the Mississippi State Bulldogs in the final regular-season weekend at Cliff Hagan Stadium, we have many special activities on tap.  From Senior Day to the Elite 1988 Baseball Team Reunion, ceremonial first (and last) pitches, etc…it promises to be a special weekend for many.

We hope you will join us May 11-13 in bidding farewell to The Cliff for the final regular season weekend.  And please RSVP to various events.  Here’s what we have on tap for you:
