ARLINGTON, Texas – The UT Arlington baseball team will be competing in two games in the newly opened Globe Life Park, as announced by the Texas Rangers on Tuesday.
 
"Our team can't wait to play in the Rangers new ballpark," said head coach Darin Thomas. "It has always been one of the big moments for our team every spring."
 
The Mavericks will get two early season contests in the MLB ballpark, taking on Tarleton State on Feb. 23 before playing Oklahoma the following day for their first mid-week games of the season. UTA will be the visiting team against the Texans and the home team against the Sooners.
 
The Mavericks and Texans will face off at 4:00 p.m., while UTA's match up against the Sooners will be at 7:30 p.m.
 
Single Day General Admission Tickets are priced at $15 and can be purchased in advance at texasrangers.com/collegebaseball. A single day ticket will be good for both games on that day.
 
All tickets are considered General Admission tickets. Upon arrival at Globe Life Field, open seats will be available on a first-come, first-serve basis. In an effort to promote social distancing, every other row and select seats will be blocked. Games at Globe Life Field will require facial coverings, social distancing, as well as other enhanced safety and health measures. In an effort to enhance public safety, Globe Life Field will be enforcing a no bag policy. Exceptions will be made for medically necessary items, including manufactured diaper bags when accompanied by a child, after proper inspection. All Globe Life Field concessions will be cashless and offer pre-packaged food and beverage options.
 
Both games at Globe Life Field will be streamed live by FloSports.
 
Globe Life Field opened in March 2020 and is the home of Major League Baseball's Texas Rangers, which played 30 games in the park without fans in the abbreviated 2020 season. The facility then hosted 16 MLB neutral site postseason games in the National League Division (3) and Championship (7) Series and the World Series (6). Games in the final two playoff rounds were played in front of approximately 11,500 fans per game, the maximum capacity allowed by MLB.
