The Arizona baseball team will play its home opener on a Tuesday night, and the Wildcats will play their first Big 12 Conference series at Hi Corbett Field.
Those were some of the highlights of the UA’s 2025 schedule, which was released Thursday afternoon.
It was already known that Arizona would open the season Feb. 14-16 at the Shriners Children’s College Showdown at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. The Wildcats will play their home opener Feb. 18 vs. New Mexico before hosting San Diego for a three-game series Feb. 21-23.

After a return trip to Texas for four games, Arizona has an eight-game homestand from March 6-18 that includes an out-of-conference midweek matchup vs. Arizona State (March 11) and the UA’s first Big 12 series vs. Cincinnati (March 14-16).
Arizona has 30 home games in all, up from 27 last season.
Arizona’s annual series vs. ASU is slated for April 4-6 in Phoenix.
Forty-five of the Wildcats’ 54 regular-season games are scheduled to be streamed on ESPN+, with two road games vs. Grand Canyon potentially being added to that total. Some of those games could be selected for linear broadcasts on ESPN’s family of networks.
Arizona’s schedule features 16 games against seven teams that participated in the 2024 NCAA Tournament.
Arizona concludes the regular season with a series at Houston. Three days later, the Big 12 Tournament is scheduled to start in Arlington.
The league has introduced a new, single-elimination format featuring the top 12 regular-season finishers.
The top four seeds will earn a bye into the second round. The four-day tournament runs May 21-24.
