MLB pitchers and catchers have officially reported to spring training, but NCAA baseball is ready for the real thing.
Four of the nation's best teams open their season this weekend in the College Baseball Series in Surprise, Arizona, the Cactus League home of the Texas Rangers and Kansas City Royals.
No. 12 Oregon State, No. 24 Arizona, Michigan and Stanford will usher in their 2026 campaigns with games over four days in the desert. The Beavers and Wildcats are coming off NCAA tournament trips last spring, while the Wolverines and Cardinal are looking to build themselves back into Omaha contenders.
Plenty of talent will be on display this weekend, including a pair of top-100 draft prospects in MLB.com's rankings: Oregon State lefty Ethan Kleinschmit (No. 65) and Arizona right-hander Owen Kramkowski (No. 79).
Here's everything you need to know about where and when to watch as the new season begins.
