Mississippi State Baseball Fan Day Set For This Saturday



STARKVILLE, Miss. – Mississippi State will ring in the 2016 season with its annual fan day this Saturday, Feb. 13, in the Palmeiro Center on campus. Doors open at 10 a.m.



This will be the first opportunity for fans to obtain their very own free copy of the 2016 baseball schedule poster featuring team captains Brent Rooker, Dakota Hudson and Jacob Robson.



Head coach John Cohen and the team will sign autographs from 10:30 a.m until noon. To help ensure everyone in attendance has a chance to meet all the players and Cohen, student-athletes may only sign posters while Coach Cohen will autograph one item per person. In addition, several former Diamond Dawgs who currently play professional baseball will be in attendance signing.



Along with the autograph session, there will be a ‘Kid Zone’ inside the Palmeiro Center with inflatables for children to enjoy. Fans will also be given tours of the Hall of Champions, located in the baseball offices between Palmeiro and Dudy Noble Field.



Following the event, fans can then walk over to “The Dude” where the team will play an intrasquad scrimmage beginning around 1 p.m. The Mugshots kiosk inside the stadium will be open for fans to grab lunch while they enjoy the game. Children will get the opportunity to run the bases immediately following the scrimmage.



When the scrimmage ends, MSU Dugout Club members will be treated to a cookout inside the Palmeiro Center.



In related news, Tuesday night’s Cowbell Yell event has been moved indoors to the Palmeiro Center.



General admission season tickets ($205) and an eight-game Friday mini plan ($50) are currently being sold at HailState.com/tickets. Fans can also purchase tickets by calling 1-888-GO-DAWGS.



Opening Day at Dudy Noble Field for Cohen and company is Friday, Feb. 19. First pitch is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. CT against Florida Atlantic.
