STANFORD, Calif. – Having reached Omaha in each of the last two seasons, Stanford unveiled its 2023 schedule on Monday. The current 50-game slate features Pac-12 home series against Oregon State, Utah, Washington, UCLA and Arizona.
Boasting a strong non-conference schedule, the Cardinal will visit Cal State Fullerton for a three-game series to open the year, host Rice in a three-game set, travel to 2022 national runner-up Oklahoma for four games, and welcome Texas Tech to The Farm for two games in April.
Continuing a tradition of opening the season against the Titans, Stanford will play at Goodwin Field on February 17 to begin the 2023 campaign.
The Cardinal will get a glimpse of its first Pac-12 opponent in just game four of the year when it hosts California for the home-opener in non-conference play on February 21. That game with Cal will begin an eight-game homestand for the Cardinal that will feature three games against Rice (February 24-26) and CSU Bakersfield (March 3-5), and the first of a home-and-home against Santa Clara (March 7).
Pac-12 play begins on March 10 when the Cardinal travels to Los Angeles to face USC. After the series with the Trojans, Stanford will return to The Farm to host Pac-12 foes Oregon State (March 17-19) and Utah (March 25-27).
The marquee matchup with Oklahoma will commence on March 30 – beginning a string of 10 road games in 12 contests for the Cardinal. After the four games with Oklahoma, Stanford will visit rivals California (April 6-8) and Oregon (April 14-16) to sandwich a two-game set at home against Texas Tech (April 10-11).
A midweek clash with Sacramento State is scheduled for April 18 at Sunken Diamond before Washington (April 21-23), California (April 25) and UCLA (April 28-30) all pay visits to Stanford.
The Pac-12 schedule continues with a road series at Arizona State (May 5-7) before Santa Clara makes the short trip to Stanford for the final non-conference game of the regular season on May 9. Stanford's final regular-season home series will draw Arizona (May 12-14) before the Cardinal travels to Washington State on May 18 to close the regular-season ledger.
The Pac-12 announced a change in format for the 2023 Pac-12 Baseball Tournament earlier this year, expanding the field to nine teams and switching to pool play. There will be three teams in each pool, with each team playing two games in pool play. The 2023 tournament is scheduled for May 23-27 at Scottsdale Stadium, which moves the tournament to Tuesday through Saturday.
Stanford, which won the inaugural Pac-12 Baseball Tournament a year ago, enters its sixth season under the Clarke and Elizabeth Nelson Director of Baseball David Esquer. Esquer was named Pac-12 Coach of the Year and ABCA West Region Coach of the Year after leading Stanford to the 2022 Pac-12 regular-season title and a second consecutive berth into the College World Series.
