Baylor also announced Monday the addition of a single game Wednesday, March 29, against Sam Houston State. The Bears and the Bobcats meet at Baylor Ballpark for a 6 p.m. CST scheduled first pitch. This game replaces the Friday, Feb. 17, game against California, which was cancelled due to inclement weather. Fans holding tickets to the Feb. 17 game will be able to use them for the March 29 contest.
This marks the 10th consecutive season in which Baylor has spent at least one week in the Baseball America Top 25. The Bears finished the season ranked fourth nationally last year, the highest season-ending ranking in the program's history.
Baylor is off to its best 16-game start since 2003, when the Bears opened 13-3.
Elsewhere, Baylor moved up one spot to No. 18 in this week's Collegiate Baseball Top 30.
