Los Angeles, Calif. - The 2013 UCLA Baseball Alumni Game has been moved back a week to Saturday, Feb. 2 due to heavy rain in the forecast for this weekend. In addition, the scoreboard recognition that was scheduled to take place before the Alumni Game has been moved to Saturday, Feb. 16 and will take place before the game against Minnesota at 2 p.m. Further details on the scoreboard presentation will become available in the coming weeks.

The revised itinerary for the Alumni Game is below. The day's events will begin with batting practice at 9:30 a.m, followed by the "Old-Timers" Game at 10:30 a.m. Baseball alumni from the 1930's through 1979 are encouraged to play in the "Old-Timers" Game. The 2013 UCLA baseball team will then play the "Young-Timers" Alumni Team in an exhibition contest beginning at 12:05 p.m. Baseball alumni from 1980 through 2012 are encouraged to compete for the "Young-Timers" Alumni Team. Following both games, food and refreshments will be available to former players, former coaches and their families in the Gifford Hitting facility.

"Unfortunately due to heavy rain in the Los Angeles area last night and more rain in the forecast this weekend, we have decided to move the Alumni Game back to Feb. 2," head coach John Savage said. "The Alumni Game is an important annual tradition in our program and we hope that all of the alumni are still able to come out and enjoy this event next weekend."
