Vandy-N. Carolina Opens New CWS Stadium

Posted Jun 17, 2011
The College World Series opens at the new TD Ameritrade Park on Saturday after 61 years at Rosenblatt Stadium. North Carolina catcher Jacob Stallings, who played in the CWS at Rosenblatt as a freshman in 2009, will be behind the plate for the first official pitch at the new stadium. That’ll come from Patrick Johnson after former President George W. Bush delivers the ceremonial first pitch. (ACC Sports Journal)
