WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – A pair of fall exhibition games vs. opponents from Ohio headline Purdue Baseball’s fall ball schedule, which also features a baker’s dozen of open scrimmages at Alexander Field.
The Boilermakers’ 45-day fall practice calendar begins Monday, Sept. 15. Fall exhibition games and open scrimmages all feature free admission.
Purdue hosts Dayton on Saturday, Oct. 11 after visiting Cincinnati on Saturday, Sept. 27. Both games are expected to start at 1 p.m. and are likely to feature 12-plus innings regardless of score to maximize participation.
The Boilermakers also hosted Dayton in the fall of 2022 and 2023. However, Purdue has not played Cincinnati since winning in a midweek visit to the Queen City during the 2013 spring break trip.
The coaching staff has designated at least 13 practice dates as scrimmage days, which are also open to the public. Open scrimmages begin Tuesday, Sept. 16 and are generally set for Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday afternoons. Weekday times are generally 3-5 p.m. and Sunday start times should vary.
Fall ball concludes with the annual Black & Gold Series. The three-game intrasquad series will be held the week of Oct. 20 or the week of Oct. 27. Those games are also open to the public and will feature afternoon start times.
Updates related to scrimmage dates and start times will be shared on the team’s social media accounts on the day of and posted here as they become available. Dates and times are subject to change based on weather and with limited advance notice.
