What?s New at Bailey-Brayton Field for 2015 Season
PULLMAN, Wash. – Fans arriving this weekend for the 2015 WSU baseball team‘s home opener will notice many fan improvements to Bailey-Brayton Field and the Cougar baseball program.
First and foremost, assistant coach Joe Ross joined the program last fall, bringing with him 30 years of successful coaching experience, including the last five as a scout for the Seattle Mariners.
Fans will also notice new branding elements on the padded outfield walls, backstop and in front of each dugout. The outfield padding features WSU’s solid crimson color with gray diagonal stripes stretching from the foul poles toward centerfield. The backstop padding includes Washington State in WSU’s distinctive font with Pac-12 logos on each side while the front of the dugouts are now all crimson.
The Friday Night Bullpen will feature a pregame tailgate open two hours prior to first pitch, with food, refreshments and adult beverage options available from South Fork Public House. These will occur every home Friday night throughout the season.
