“Spring Baseball Classic For Kids”
For the 11th consecutive year, Georgia will battle Georgia Tech at Turner Field, home of the Atlanta Braves, in the event billed as the “Spring Baseball Classic for Kids.” The 2013 game will be on April 23rd. Georgia holds a 7-3 edge in the series at Turner Field. All tickets are $12 with proceeds benefitting Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta and its Brain and Spinal Cord Tumor Program. The game has raised more than $200,000 annually for the not-for-profit pediatric healthcare system. Since 2004, there have been more than 20,000 tickets sold annually for each game. In 2010, a portion of the ticket sales went to the “Prayers for Chance Fund” to help offset medical expenses of Bulldog infielder Chance Veazey. The average attendance for the Spring Baseball Classic For Kids at Turner Field is 19,416.

2013 Season Preview
Optimism, Confidence Abound In Bulldog Dugout The Pitching The Bulldogs will build up their staff during the first part of the season using a novel approach. Georgia will enter each game with two designated starters who will combine to cover the first seven innings. From there, relievers will come in for specific matchups and may go as long as one inning. “We feel like our strength is in our numbers; we potentially are 14-15 deep,” said Perno. “We’re going to try and keep the pitch counts for our starters between 65-to-70 and their innings to around 65 for the year. With the piggyback starter approach, we can limit the initial workload of our top relievers. Also, we want to be strong on Sundays, and The Lineup Georgia’s hitters at the top of the lineup will be sophomore second this should help us do that.” Georgia’s roster is full of veteran relievers, and they will be paired baseman Nelson Ward and senior All-SEC third baseman Curt Powell.

Now in his 12th season at the helm, David Perno welcomes back five starting position players and eight pitchers who logged innings in 2012. Offensively, Georgia aims to be more productive in 2013; the defense should again be strong after fielding a school record .978 last year; and the pitching staff will take a unique approach early in the season.

Georgia Coaching Staff
David Perno Head Coach 12th Season 17th Year at UGA (Georgia ’91)
CWS: 1990, ’01, ’04, ’06, ’08 SEC Champions: 2001, ’04, ’08 In 11 seasons directing the University of Georgia baseball program, David Perno has guided the Bulldogs to six postseason appearances, more than any other coach in school history. He has taken three Georgia teams to the College World Series (CWS). The 2008 Bulldogs advanced to the CWS Finals, captured a Southeastern Conference (SEC) title, finished with a consensus No. 2 final national ranking and had the second best finish in school history. Perno, 45, has spent the past 16 years with the Bulldogs, first working as an assistant under Ron Polk and Robert Sapp before being named head coach in July of 2001. Under Perno, Georgia has shown a standard of excellence on and off the field. He led the Bulldogs to the CWS in 2004, 2006 and 2008. He is one of only 12 men in NCAA history to take three teams to the CWS in his first seven years as a head coach. Perno has the distinction of going to the CWS with the Bulldogs as a player (1990 national champions), assistant coach (2001) and three times as a head coach. In school history, the Bulldogs have made only 11 NCAA postseason appearances, and six of those trips have been during Perno’s tenure. Georgia went 31-26 in 2012, and Perno’s work with the pitching staff produced exceptional results including the best Earned Run Average (3.86) by a Bulldog squad in the aluminum bat era (dates back to 1974). Also, defense has been a hallmark for Perno’s teams. The 2012 season marked the second year in a row that the team set a record for highest fielding percentage at .978. In 2011, the Bulldogs went 33-32 playing the nation’s toughest rated schedule and advanced to the NCAA Corvallis (Ore.) Regional final. After the 2010 season saw Georgia post a record high ERA, Perno decided to take over duties as the pitching coach in 2011. The results were rather impressive considering the staff ERA dropped 3.61 runs a game and this after playing a scheduled that featured 37 games against ranked teams. Also, the Bulldogs set a school record for fielding percentage at .974. Georgia finished fourth in the rugged SEC at 16-14 behind three teams ranked in the top five all season in South Carolina, Florida and Vanderbilt, as they shared the league crown. For the second year in a row, the Bulldogs dealt with a devastating injury to a starter. This time, it was junior leadoff hitter Johnathan Taylor (J.T.) who sustained a serious neck injury in the 11th game of the year. Perno’s squad dedicated the season to their fallen teammate and made a dramatic run at the SEC Tournament to qualify for an NCAA Regional. Player development is another highlight in the Perno era. A total of 40 Bulldogs have had the opportunity to play professional baseball after coming to Georgia as a non-drafted player. Also, 16 Bulldogs have improved their draft status the next time they were selected. In 2009, Georgia led the nation

He had just completed his fifth year on the Georgia staff including his second under Ron Polk. Perno’s recruiting efforts have helped build the program back to a force in the SEC. Perno’s initial charge as head coach was to sustain the momentum created by the 2001 Bulldogs that captured the SEC title and advanced to the CWS. After the professional draft and graduation claimed Georgia’s entire starting infield, pitching rotation and two catchers, Perno guided a youthful squad to the 2002 NCAA Atlanta Regional final and a record of 32-29. It marked the only time in school history that Georgia had made back-to-back trips to the NCAA Tournament. Georgia’s 2002 schedule ranked among the toughest in the country, featuring 32 road games. The 2004 season was the second most successful campaign in school history until the 2008 squad finished second. In 2006, Georgia returned again to the CWS, going 47-23 overall and ended the year ranked No. 6. Before coming back to Georgia, Perno was an assistant under Robert Sapp at Middle Georgia. In 1996, the Warriors posted a 58-9 mark and third place finish at the JUCO World Series. Following his playing career which included one season at Middle Georgia and three at UGA, Perno served as an assistant coach at Marshall University for three years. While at Marshall, he received his master’s degree in Athletic and Health Education. From 1992-1996, Perno coached the Cortland (N.Y.) Apples in the Northeastern Collegiate Summer League. Perno, played for Sapp at Middle Georgia in 1987 as the Warriors went 42-6 en route to a third place finish in the state. Perno transferred to UGA in 1988 where he played his final three seasons in various roles and was a member of the national championship team in 1990. He graduated from Georgia in 1991 with a degree in Marketing Education. A 1986 graduate of Clarke Central, Perno lettered in baseball and football and was an All-State selection as a senior. He played running back on the 1985 football state championship team and the 1985 American Legion state championship team. Perno is married to the former Melaney Chastain of Athens, Ga.

Georgia Coaching Staff
Jason Eller Assistant Coach Pitching Coach 11th Season (Ga. State ’98) CWS: 2004, ’06, ’08 Jason Eller enters his 11th season on the staff at the University of Georgia including his seventh as an assistant coach. In June of 2012, he was named Pitching Coach after assisting head coach David Perno with the staff for the past two years. Also, Eller coordinated Georgia’s recruiting efforts from 2007-12. A native of Marietta, Ga., Eller has helped the pitching staff improve dramatically over the past two seasons. In 2011, the Bulldogs reduced their Earned Run Average (ERA) by 3.61 runs a game. In 2012, Georgia’s ERA was its lowest in the aluminum bat era which dates back to 1974. Perno and Eller assumed control of the pitching staff following the 2010 season when the Bulldogs finished with an 8.51 ERA. Since then, Georgia’s ERA improved to 4.90 in 2011 and then 3.86 in 2012. Eller has been a part of three Georgia squads that have advanced to the College World Series (CWS) since 2004. Also, he has set a new standard in Bulldog recruiting with 42 members getting selected in the past six Major League Baseball (MLB) drafts. A record 11 signees were selected in the 2011 MLB draft. Georgia’s 2011 recruiting class was ranked as high as No. 2 nationally by Perfect Game USA and finished in the top 20 after five draft picks enrolled at UGA. Five members of the 2012 signing class were drafted and a few others informed MLB teams they would be attending Georgia. In 2007 and 2008, Georgia had a then record eight signees selected. In the 2007 MLB draft, the eight selections were highlighted by first round pick Ben Revere who opted to turn professional and five others going in the first 18 rounds. Ultimately, four of those Bulldogs made it to Athens. In 2008, Georgia had eight more members of its recruiting class selected by Major League clubs. Also, the 2008 class featured six members among Baseball America’s Top 100 High School Prospects, which tied for the most by any school during the early signing period. In 2009, four of the six signees that were drafted decided to come to UGA. Eller’s duties on the field have varied from working with the outfielders and hitters to assisting Perno with the pitching. His work with the pitching staff helped reduce the team ERA by 3.61 runs a game. Eller has served as a first base coach and third base coach in his Bulldog career. In 2003, he came to Georgia as a volunteer coach and was promoted to a full-time assistant in August of 2006. Eller helped Georgia hitters set a school record and SEC-best 109 home runs in 2009 as the Bulldogs made their second consecutive appearance in the NCAA Tournament. It was the first time Georgia made back-to-back trips to the NCAA postseason since 2001-02. Georgia’s 2008 recruiting class was ranked fifth nationally by Collegiate Baseball, and the group combined to start 226 games for Georgia in 2009. Eller helped guide the SEC Champion Bulldogs to within a victory of the 2008 national championship. Georgia captured another NCAA Athens Regional and Super Regional, and then the Bulldogs reached the CWS Finals. Georgia earned a consensus final national ranking of number two, marking the second best finish in school history. Georgia’s offense in 2008 set school records for Hits, Total Bases, At Bats and tied the mark for Games Played. His work with the outfielders and hitters helped Georgia to a third place finish at the 2004 CWS, a share of the SEC title, a record of 4523 and final national ranking of fourth in the country. Also, the Bulldog

Allen Osborne Assistant Coach Recruiting Coordinator 3rd Season (Marshall ’95) CWS: 2001 Allen Osborne enters his third season as an assistant coach after spending time earlier in his career in Athens. He returned to the University of Georgia baseball program in June of 2010, serving as the hitting instructor and third base coach. He added the duties of recruiting coordinator in June of 2012. In 2011, he helped the Bulldogs back to the NCAA postseason as they posted a 33-32 record while playing the nation’s toughest rated schedule. Georgia had 37 games against ranked opponents and ended the year by reaching the finals of the NCAA Corvallis (Ore.) Regional. Georgia had seven players drafted in 2011 including outfielder Zach Cone, a first round pick (37th overall selection), by the Texas Rangers. Also, the Bulldogs set a school record for Fielding Percentage at .974. Osborne helped assemble a recruiting class that was ranked as high No. 2 nationally by Perfect Game USA before the draft and finished in the top 20 when five draft picks enrolled at UGA. The 2012 squad went 31-26 and established another school record with a .978 Fielding Percentage. Five members of the 2012 signing class were drafted and a few others instructed MLB teams they would be attending Georgia. Osborne’s first stint with the Bulldogs came as a graduate assistant under Robert Sapp in 1997-98, then as a volunteer assistant under Ron Polk in 2000-01 and David Perno in 2002. In 2001, Georgia won the Southeastern Conference title (its first league championship since 1954) and advanced to the College World Series for the first time since winning the 1990 national title. In 2002, Osborne helped Georgia qualify for back-to-back NCAA Regionals for the first time in school history. While at Georgia, he helped develop three future Major Leaguers in Jeff Keppinger, Clint Sammons and Robby Hammock. All three Bulldogs remain active in professional baseball. Keppinger enjoyed a career year in 2012 with Tampa Bay; Hammock served as a hitting coach in the Arizona organization; Sammons played in Triple-A with Miami. From 2008-10, Osborne rebuilt the Wingate (N.C.) program. The Bulldogs captured the 2010 South Atlantic Conference title, the first for the school since 2000. Wingate advanced to the SAC Tournament each year under Osborne and increased its win total. The 19 conference wins by the Bulldogs in 2010 was the second most in school history. His top players included 2009 AllAmerican and Conference Player of the Year Mark Letchworth and Conference Freshman of the Year Casey Allison. They helped the team lead the league in nine offensive categories. During Osborne’s time at Wingate, nine Bulldog recruits and players were selected in the Major League Baseball draft. Prior to directing the Wingate program, Osborne spent the 2007 season as an assistant coach at the University of Memphis under Daron Schoenrock. That year, Memphis made their first NCAA Regional appearance since 1994 and posted its most regular season wins in 13 years. 2013 University of Georgia Baseball

Endowment Program The UGAAthletic Scholarship Endowment Program was instituted to allow supporters of the University of Georgia Athletic Association to invest in the educational opportunities of UGA student-athletes. The program is vital to the future of Georgia Athletics by providing the long-term solution of keeping pace with escalating expenses. A gift to establish a scholarship provides income towards funding a scholarship each year and permanently memorializes the donor or any individual whose honor the scholarship is named. A full scholarship is endowed through a gift of $150,000. Currently, there are six baseball scholarship endowments. For more information about the Athletic Scholarship Endowment Program or other giving opportunities, please contact the UGAA Development office at (877) 423-2947.

2012 Season Review Pitching And Defense Carry Georgia To SEC Tournament The 2012 Bulldogs (31-26 overall, 14-15 Southeastern Conference) concluded their season at the SEC Tournament. They went in as the eighth seed and went 0-2. Still, Georgia registered its lowest Earned Run Average in the aluminum bat era (began in 1974) at 3.86, and for the second year in a row, they set a school record for best fielding percentage at .978. The Georgia pitching staff was led by redshirt sophomore left-hander Alex Wood (7-3), and his 2.73 ERA was the best by a starter since 1989 (Dave Fleming, 2.08). Offensively, Georgia batted .279, averaged 4.9 runs a game and hit just .260 with runners in scoring position. Junior third baseman Curt Powell led the club with a .355 batting average. Outfielder Hunter Cole, who was named a Freshman All-American by Collegiate Baseball, had a team-best seven home runs to go with a .276 batting average while junior shortstop Kyle Farmer collected a team-high 41 RBI while batting .302 with 19 doubles and four home runs. Farmer broke his own school record for highest fielding percentage by a shortstop by posting a .970 mark in 266 chances covering 56 starts. His old record was .967 in 182 chances. Also, senior Colby May established a defensive record for first baseman at .998 in 435 chances.
Top Bulldog Performers
Pitcher Alex Wood and third baseman Curt Powell were selected to the All-SEC Second Team by the league coaches. Wood logged 102.1 innings with 100 strikeouts and only 21 walks in going 7-3 with a 2.73 ERA. In SEC games, Wood went 4-1 with a 2.57 ERA and two complete games. Twice during the 2012 season, Wood earned SEC Pitcher of the Week honors. Powell hit .355-2-20 overall and .345-2-10 in SEC action. Also, Hunter Cole landed a spot on the SEC All-Freshmen team.
ALEX WOOD 7-3, 2.73 ERA All-SEC 2nd Team 2nd Round pick, Atlanta Braves
Senior Salute
Seniors Levi Hyams and Peter Verdin closed out their careers ranked in the top 10 in school history for games played. Hyams appeared in 224 games (5th all-time) while Verdin played in 219 (8th all-time). Hyams, a utility infielder, set the Bulldog mark for highest fielding percentage by a shortstop in 2009 (.962), which was broken next year by Kyle Farmer. Then as a second baseman, Hyams established a new record at .983 in 2011. Verdin, a corner outfielder who finished up playing mostly centerfield in 2012, made his share of highlight catches in his career. In 2012, he had five assists and 121 putouts in 127 total chances. Also, Verdin ranked sixth all-time with 47 stolen bases. Senior pitcher Michael Palazzone wound up ninth in school history with 19 wins and 300.1 innings pitched. Senior Tyler Maloof concluded his Bulldog career ranked fifth in saves with 18, and they all came in 2011. He did not pitch in 2012 due to injury.
Did You Know?
Georgia had five walk-off wins in 2012 and two walk-off losses. Brett DeLoach had a pinch-hit two-out two-run double to beat Presbyterian in the second game of the year. The others came from Kevin Ruiz (Western Illinois), two by Kyle Farmer (Kennesaw State and Auburn) and Joey Delmonico (South Carolina).
Of Georgia’s 25 home runs, 17 were solo shots including 11 of the final 14. Junior third baseman Curt Powell led off the April 28 game at #4 LSU with a home run. Freshman Justin Bryan hit two home runs (2R & Solo) in the 5-3 road win over #4 LSU on April 29. Junior Kyle Farmer hit the team’s first 3-run home run of the season on May 6 in the 9-3 win over Auburn to complete a sweep of the Tigers. Georgia executed a double steal including of home twice in 2012; Conor Welton stole home against Ole Miss on April 13 while Brett DeLoach did it at #4 LSU on April 29. The 4 hour and 56 minute contest with top-ranked Florida that ended in 16 innings on April 20 marked Georgia’s longest game by time in school history, eclipsing a 4:47 game against Western Carolina in 1992. The pitching staffs combined to throw 444 pitches (221-UGA; 223-UF), and the Bulldogs shut out the Gators starting in the 6th inning until a walkoff strikeout E2 gave UF a 3-2 win. The UF game was also the longest SEC game by time and innings in Bulldog history, bettering the 4:41 game versus Miss. State in 2003 that went 15 innings. The most innings played by Georgia in a game remains 17 against Gardner Webb in 2007.

2013 SEC Baseball THIS IS SEC BASEBALL
The Southeastern Conference, with its storied 79-year history of athletic achievements and academic excellence, has built perhaps the greatest tradition of intercollegiate competition in baseball of any league in the country since its inception in 1933. The SEC posted another tremendous season in 2012. Eight teams earned selection to NCAA postseason play with South Carolina, Arkansas and Florida advancing to the College World Series (CWS). A SEC squad has appeared in the CWS 27 of the last 28 years. USC made it to the CWS Finals, marking the eighth time since 2000 that an SEC team played for the national title in Omaha and fifth in a row. LSU won the SEC regular-season title with a 19-11 conference record while USC claimed the East at 18-11. Mississippi State won the SEC tournament title over Vanderbilt. The SEC boasts 12 former National Players of the Year, 11 Baseball America Coach of the Year and 10 Collegiate Baseball Coach of the Year honors. A total of 155 student-athletes have been named first-team AllAmerican, six of which came in 2012. Tremendous Fan Support For SEC Baseball The SEC drew a record of nearly 2.2 million fans to its on-campus ballparks in 2012, the seventh year in a row to draw over 1.6 million. Seven SEC teams drew in excess of 100,000 fans to their parks in 2012. The SEC averaged a record 5,181 fans per game in 2012, the sixth straight year to exceed the 4,000 mark and first over 5,000. The SEC Baseball Tournament drew a new record-high 129,112 fans in 2012 and 7,595 per game. The SEC Championship Game was broadcast nationally on EPSN2 for the third straight year. The MLB Draft In 2012, 45 former SEC players were listed on MLB opening day 25man rosters. Four SEC players were taken in the first round of the 2012 MLB Amateur Draft. The SEC has now had a first round pick in each year since 1991 and 93 total in the first round during that time. Did You Know? Georgia won the first baseball national title for the SEC in 1990 while LSU has collected six crowns since then (1991, ‘93, ‘96, 1997, 2000, ’09) while South Carolina (2010, ’11) has claimed two. There have been six runner-up finishes including Georgia in 2008, Florida in 2011 and South Carolina in 2012. In 2008, Georgia became the first school to sweep the following SEC honors in the same season: Player of the Year (Gordon Beckham), Pitcher of the Year (Joshua Fields), Scholar Athlete of the Year (Gordon Beckham) and Coach of the Year (David Perno).

Bulldog Major Leaguers A total of 34 former Bulldogs have reached the Major League level. It began with Claude Derrick for the Philadelphia Athletics in 1909. The latest Bulldog to make it to the majors was Justin Grimm (Texas) in 2012. He was one of four Bulldogs to play in the majors in 2012, joining Gordon Beckham (Chicago) Mitchell Boggs (St. Louis) and Jeff Keppinger (Tampa Bay). All four had fine seasons in 2012 with Keppinger posting career highs in a variety of roles for the Rays. While Boggs helped the Cardinals win the 2011 World Series, he was even better in 2012. Beckham has been a regular in the White Sox lineup since the 2009 season when he was named the American League Rookie of the Year by the MLB Players Association and by The Sporting News plus to the Topps Rookie All-Star team. Derrick played on Connie Mack’s World Championship teams in 1910 and 1911 and, while recovering from a broken ankle in Baltimore in 1912, he was the first roommate of a rookie pitcher named George Herman “Babe” Ruth. Nolen Richardson, a Georgia standout in football and basketball in the 1920s, played six years in the majors and returned to coach the Bulldogs in 1951. Johnny Rucker was featured in LIFE as a promising rookie in 1940. While many Bulldogs enjoyed success throughout their career, one who stands out is Spurgeon “Spud” Chandler. Chandler was a part of seven World Series teams for the New York Yankees, including winners of six championships. Actually, he first played in Yankee Stadium as a member of the Bulldog football team. Georgia defeated New York University 7-6 on Nov. 7, 1931. Following his graduation in 1932, the Carnesville, Ga., native spent five years in the minors before returning to Yankee Stadium as a major leaguer. In his 11-year career, his finest season came in 1943. He led the league in Wins, Earned Run Average and Complete Games, going 20-4 with a 1.64 ERA and 20 complete games. He went 2-0 with a 0.50 ERA in the 1943 World Series, winning game one and pitching a shutout in the clinching game five over St. Louis.
Mitchell Boggs, a key member of the 2011 World Series Champion Cardinals, made a career-high 78 appearances in 2012, going 4-1 with a 2.21 ERA.

Littleton made the Indians 1981 team out of spring training. He made his debut in game two that season, pinch-hitting in the ninth inning. He grounded out to eventual Hall of Famer Robin Yount. His lone RBI came on a bases-loaded line out off Minnesotaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jerry Koosman that Mickey Hatcher ran down. Most of his at-bats came as a pinch-hitter, and he started just four games over a 45-day span. Still, the Bulldog graduate made it to the top.

USA BASEBALL TEAM
Kyle Farmer served as the starting shortstop on the 2012 USA Summer Team.
USA Baseball, based in Durham, N.C., is the national governing body of amateur baseball in the United States and a member of the United States Olympic Committee (USOC). The organization selects, trains, and supports the USA Baseball Team and a Junior Team which participates in international competitions, including the Olympic Games and World Championships. While the first official exhibition baseball game in the Olympics was a 1912 contest in Stockholm, Sweden, reports exist that an unrecognized baseball game was played at the 1904 Games in St. Louis, Mo. A number of single game exhibitions were also played at the 1936, 1952, 1956, and 1964 Olympic Games. The 1992 Games in Barcelona was the debut of baseball as a medal sport.
OLYMPIC TEAM 1936
Henry Wagnon, C (Bostwick, Ga.)
Wagnon was one of 22 delegates to the International Sports Congress whose members demonstrated American Games to other nations in Berlin. Although other countries had planned to send teams for the baseball tournament, none did. So, the USA squad split into two teams and played a night game before a world-record crowd reported to be over 125,000. The World Amateurs defeated the USA Olympics 6-5.

The 1990 season will long be remembered as the finest ever produced at Georgia. Catcher Terry Childers’ play in the seventh preserved a 2-1 lead as Stan Payne and Dave Fleming combined to lead the Bulldogs to the national title. Georgia was invited to Washington D.C., to discuss the strategy they used with President George Bush, a baseball letterman in his collegiate days at Yale.

All-Time Lettermen MORTON HODGSON: One of the Best Ever
Michael Hyle
Morton Hodgson (1906-09) not only was a starter for four years in baseball, he lettered in football, basketball and track. He was Georgia’s first four-letter athlete. A hometown hero, he hit .333 on the 1908 championship squad that was considered one of the greatest teams ever fielded by the University. The pitching staff was so strong it shut out 12 opponents, six in succession. He was named to Grantland Rice’s All-Southern team. His sons were stellar athletes for the Bulldogs and two of his grandsons lettered in football under Coach Vince Dooley. He is the only Georgia player to have a son and two grandsons letter in football at Georgia.

History of Georgia Coaches BULLDOG TRIVIA
While C.E. Morris served as the coach for Georgia’s first team in 1886, Hughie Jennings is credited with being the Bulldogs’ first official coach. He played for 17 years in the Major Leagues while also managing the Detroit Tigers from 1907-20. He was the second shortstop and among the first 35 men elected to the Hall of Fame. Former Bulldog Claude Derrick began his career with the Philadelphia Athletics in 1909 and played on two World Championship teams in 1910 and 1911. In 1912 with Baltimore, Derrick was the first roommate of rookie George Herman Ruth, better known as “The Babe.”

Foley Field Home of The Bulldogs
Foley Field, constructed in 1990, is one of the finest baseball complexes in the country. The stadium features all chairback seating. The grandstand area is covered by a partial roof with both concession stands and rest rooms located in the stadium. The complex continues to get better. The Foley family of Columbus is synonymous with Georgia baseball, and they have provided the foundation for the Bulldogs latest stadium renovation with a leadership gift that was announced in December of 2012. The large-scale measures planned for the future include improvements to the dugouts, Georgia’s locker room and team lounge, training room and batting cages. Also, an upgraded sound system, redesigning the stadium’s main entrance and additional restrooms and concession areas along with an expanded press box are planned. The UGA Athletic Association board of directors already approved and work began this past December on a few items that are part of the master plan. Current construction scheduled to be completed for the 2013 season will make improvements to the right field area known as “Kudzu Hill,” a new high-definition video scoreboard and new trees behind the outfield fence. Since the late 1960s, Bulldog baseball home games have been played at Foley Field. Overall, Georgia is 21-7 in the NCAA postseason at Foley Field including earning trips to the College World Series in 2001, 2006 and 2008.

Judge Frank Foley is considered one of Georgia’s all-time greats for his contributions both on and off the field. Foley was a part of the 1908 Southern championship team that recorded a mark of 20-2. He was a distinguished alumnus who is remembered by many as a kind and caring gentleman. His enthusiasm for the University of Georgia was second to none.

Before Foley Field
The first home for Georgia baseball was Herty Field from 1886 until 1911. Then, it was Sanford Field until 1943. Pond Lippett threw the first no-hitter at home in Georgia history, blanking Pittsburgh 6-0 in 1920. Fred Sale pitched a perfect game at Sanford Field in 1923, a 4-0 win over Virginia. It was the first perfect game in Bulldog history and one of only two to date. After World War II, the Diamond Dogs played on a field with no name located on “Ag. Hill,” where Stegeman Coliseum is today. When construction for the Coliseum began in 1962, Georgia moved to its freshman field, which is next to where the Butts-Mehre building is now. In 1966, Georgia moved to its current location, and two years later, it was named Foley Field. On May 5, 1990, a $3.5 million refurbished Foley Field was dedicated.
