Baseball to play Cardinal and White intrasquad game

Jan. 26, 2012, 1:47 a.m.

For the first time ever, fans will get an opportunity to see the Stanford baseball team in action before the season officially begins. On Saturday, Feb. 11, Klein Field at Sunken Diamond will play host to the Cardinal and White intrasquad game at 1 p.m.

 

Rosters for either side have yet to be announced, but fans will get a chance to see the 2012 Cardinal in action before it kicks off the season with a home series against No. 10 Vanderbilt February 17-19.

 

With its highest preseason ranking in some years, the No. 2 Cardinal returns seven of eight starting position players and has three projected first-round draft picks in the 2012 MLB draft — including the potential No. 1 pick, junior RHP Mark Appel.

 

Admission to the event will be free for all fans, and players will be available for autographs after the game. Mark Marquess, now in his 36th year as the head coach, will also address the crowd.
