STARKVILLE – Mississippi State baseball will be returning to a big-league ballpark in 2026.
On Friday it was announced that the Diamond Dawgs are part of a six-team field for the Amegy Bank College Baseball Series at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas from Feb. 27-March 1, 2026. Arizona State, Tennessee, Texas A&M, UCLA and Virginia Tech are also competing at the event.

"We can't wait to welcome six more elite programs to Globe Life Field to close out our 2026 college baseball slate as part of the Amegy Bank College Baseball Series," said Jared Schrom, senior vice president of REV Entertainment.
