The time has finally arrived for fans to take in some conference action at Smith’s Ballpark as the University of Utah baseball team (10-12, 1-5 Pac-12) plays in its Pac-12 home opener against the Oregon Ducks (16-6, 4-2 Pac-12) beginning Thursday night. First pitch for game one is scheduled for 7 p.m. MT. Play continues on Friday at 5 p.m. MT before the last game of the series takes place Saturday at 12 p.m. MT.
The Utes head into the series having dropped their past nine of 10 games — including conferences losses to Washington and Stanford — and they most recently dropped a midweek game to BYU.
