The Mountaineers will play an MLB team for what is believed to be the first time in program history at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick, the Diamondbacks’ 11,000-seat spring training ballpark built in 2011. Admission to the contest will be free for all fans.
“We are excited to be playing an exhibition game against the Diamondbacks,” WVU coach Randy Mazey said. “Our players and coaching staff are excited, and it’s a great opportunity for our team to be on the same field as Major League players, and to see exactly the level of baseball they are striving to achieve.
