I had a great time working on this piece digging into a crazy weekend at Hoglund Ballpark. Big thanks to @W1SD0Mseth and his friends for sitting down and talking to me. | For @KansanSports and @KansanNews . kansan.com/sports/beware-…

Travis Goff spoke much more definitively today on an indoor baseball practice facility than before. He said KU is "locked in on building" one next to the clubhouse. "It will be critical as we and Fitz, most importantly, have prioritized the day-to-day development for this team.”

🚨 STUDENTS 🚨 You were a huge part of this year’s success. The first 130 students with a valid KU ID can pick up a ticket for free at the Allen Fieldhouse Ticket Office on gameday. After those 130 are claimed, students can purchase tickets for $10, based on availability.

Hoglund Ballpark's capacity for regionals will be about 4,000, per release. The left-field area is called "The Backyard" and fans will be able to bring in lawn chairs. The concourse has been extended on both the first- and third-base sides with more concessions and restrooms.

The 16 regional sites, as announced tonight. There will be a Lawrence Regional for the first time.

KU coach Dan Fitzgerald said today that Brady Ballinger injured his hamate bone at the end of the BYU series and is expected back for NCAA regionals, but not the Big 12 tournament. Options to replace him in left include Savion Flowers, Max Soliz Jr. and maybe Dariel Osoria.
