OU Baseball: Oklahoma Unveils Fan Experience Enhancements, New Seating Options

By OU Media Relations

NORMAN — The University of Oklahoma Athletics Department has announced a series of fan-experience enhancements at L. Dale Mitchell Park for the 2025 OU baseball home season, which starts Feb. 14. The expanded offerings are in response to fan feedback following the Sooners’ NCAA regional in Norman last season and are the result of current opportunities to elevate the fan experience. The immediate enhancements for the 2025 season — which include new premium seating in the main stadium and outfield, as well as upgraded concessions — are separate from the program’s continued  to renovate the stadium. 

The ballpark upgrades coming this season are also a direct result of the momentum Oklahoma Baseball is currently experiencing, with two conference titles, a trip to the Men’s College World Series and pair of 40-win seasons since 2022.
