Louisville Super Regional baseball game dates, times named

The University of Louisville's baseball team drew a Friday-Sunday Super Regional for a three-game series against Kennesaw State, the NCAA announced Tuesday morning.

Games at Jim Patterson Stadium are set for 6:30 p.m. Friday on ESPNU, 7 p.m. Saturday on ESPNU and (if necessary) 6 p.m. Sunday on ESPN2.

The winner advances to the College World Series.

All session passes to the Super Regional cost $45 for reserved chairback seating. It's $25 for berm seating/general admission and $15 for college students. Passes can be purchased at GoCards.com or through U of L's ticket office at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium.

Single session tickets go on sale at 9 a.m. Friday. It's $20 a day for reserved seating, $10 for general admission and $5 for college students.

Patterson Stadium seats 4,000, though with general admission, the school isn't limited to that capacity for games.

Kennesaw State, a No. 3 seed at its regional, beat Alabama on Monday to advance. The Owls have won 26 of their last 28 games and feature one of the nation's best catchers, junior Max Pentecost, who touts a .423 batting average with nine home runs and 58 RBI.

The Cardinals meanwhile won three straight games in their home Regional, advancing out as the No. 1 seed.

No national seeds remain on the left side of the NCAA tournament bracket — U of L's side — meaning the Cardinals wouldn't have to face one of the nation's top eight teams until the College World Series Championship, should they advance.

U of L is also the only 2013 College World Series team to make it back into this year's Super Regionals.

Other than the Cardinals, top seeds remaining include: Oklahoma, Vanderbilt, TCU, Louisiana-Lafayette, Ole Miss and Virginia.

The College World Series runs from June 14-24/25 at TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha, Neb.
