Along with three ranked Big 12 opponents, the Bears face No. 9 Arizona State, No. 17 Vanderbilt, No. 18 Rice, No. 21 TCU, No. 22 Long Beach State and No. 24 Oral Roberts. - From the weekend of Feb. 18-20 to the weekend of March 25-27, the Bears have five consecutive weekend series against teams ranked in the preseason Top 25. - The Bears play 36 games against 13 teams that appeared in the 2004 NCAA Regionals. - Baylor Ballpark has ranked 21st or better nationally in average attendance every year since the facility's opening in 1999, including a program-best ninth in 2001. Baylor ranked 19th nationally in average attendance last season. - Entering the 2005 season, 2B Michael Griffin is the NCAA active career leader in games played (189), at bats (782) and hits (243).
