History

[edit]

Georgia Tech players in a dugout atSunTrust Park in 2017

Baseball is a very successful sport at Georgia Tech, where it is one of the premier baseball teams in theNCAA. Georgia Tech baseball is notable for its high-scoring offenses and stout defenses. Before Tech had its own baseball field, it played at Brisbine Park.^[2]

A notable game was played in 1916, when theCumberland College Bulldogs routed the Yellow Jackets 22-0. Seeking to avenge this loss, Georgia Tech baseball coachJohn Heisman, who was also the football coach at the time, invoked the two schools' previously-agreed-upon scheduling contract that obligated Cumberland to play Georgia Tech in football. Theresultant game became the most lopsided victory ever in the history of college football, carrying a score of 222-0 in favor of Georgia Tech.

The team's success is guided by head coachDanny Hall. Danny Hall has coached Tech since 1994 and has posted 1,039 wins over that span. He has led Georgia Tech to 20 years of NCAA regional play and its only threeCollege World Series appearances in 1994, 2002, and 2006.

The baseball team, under Hall, has become an annual contender for the ACC regular season and tournament titles winning each four and three times respectively.
