Louisville Baseball Announces Pizza Bowl Schedule
October 11, 2019 | Baseball
The 14th annual Pizza Bowl will begin Monday, Oct. 14 at 3 p.m., ET at Jim Patterson Stadium.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The University of Louisville baseball program has released its schedule for the 14th annual Pizza Bowl, which begins on Monday, Oct. 14 at 3 p.m., ET at Jim Patterson Stadium.
The series continues with game two on Wednesday, Oct. 16 at 3 p.m., ET before a Friday night under the lights Oct. 18 starting at 6 p.m., ET. Games four and five will wrap up the Pizza Bowl on Oct. 21 and Oct. 23, respectively, with first pitch set for 3 p.m., ET each day.
Batting practice will begin approximately 75 minutes prior to first pitch each day and admission is free for all Pizza Bowl games.
ABOUT THE PIZZA BOWL
Upon his hiring as Louisville head coach in the summer of 2006, Dan McDonnell immediately created an atmosphere of competition throughout the Cardinals baseball program. Whether it's through conditioning in the Omaha Challenge, or in preseason scrimmages, McDonnell creates competitive situations to give his players numerous opportunities to prepare for what they will see during conference and postseason games.
One of the most effective ways McDonnell and his coaching staff can provide the Louisville players with those competitive, game-like situations is through the annual Pizza Bowl series. Following approximately six weeks of fall practice sessions, the Cardinals take to the field for what started as a one-game scrimmage in the fall of 2006 and has become an ultra-competitive three-game or five-game intra-squad series. The winning team is rewarded by being served as much pizza as it would like by the losing squad, which in turn shares what is left. The Pizza Bowl series has become an exciting and highly anticipated ending to the fall for Louisville coaches, players and fans.
