Feb. 4, 2011

IRVING, Texas –

The Big 12 Conference announced its 2011 college baseball television schedule on cable station Fox Sports Net Friday. Six games will be featured in this package, including the Kansas-Oklahoma game to be played at L. Dale Mitchell Park on Saturday, May 7 at 2 p.m.

The television appearance marks the fifth-straight season that FSN has chosen the Jayhawks to appear on its national college game of the week. Last season, KU fell to Oklahoma State in 12 innings on FSN on May 1. It also will mark the 22nd televised game for the Jayhawks since the 2005 season.

FSN’s national coverage of Big 12 baseball will begin on April 23, with the Texas Tech-Kansas State game in Manhattan, Kan. Other games on the schedule include Oklahoma at Texas (April 30), Baylor at Oklahoma State (May 14) and Texas A&M at Texas (May 21). FSN will also broadcast the Big 12 Championship game live from Redhawks Ballpark in Oklahoma City on May 29 at 1 p.m.

Additional television appearances are possible through other Big 12 broadcast partners and institutional contacts; they will be announced at a later time.
