2024 Butler Schedule
 
INDIANAPOLIS – The Butler baseball team will open the 2024 season at Florida State on February 16. The home opener is set for March 5 vs. Purdue Fort Wayne and the start of BIG EAST play will take the Bulldogs to Creighton on April 5. Altogether, Butler will host 24 games at Bulldog Park including a single contest against Indiana on March 28 and a game against Notre Dame on May 14. BU will fight for a spot in the BIG EAST Tournament which begins on May 22 this year in Mason, Ohio.
 
Butler's trip to Tallahassee will be for a three-game series against the Seminoles and will serve as the first of three road trips to begin 2024. Week 2 of the regular season sends BU to Alabama A&M and after a single game at Southern Illinois, Butler will continue with a three-game series at Morehead State. The Eagles went 36-20 last year and were 19-4 at home.
 
The 'Dawgs will hope for warm weather on March 5 when they host the Mastodons in the home opener. The team will then head south to play three different teams in Memphis. The Tigers will host the Bulldogs on March 8 and BU will play Jackson State and Presbyterian while visiting Bluff City.
 
Bradley and Butler will play a three-game series in Winter Haven Florida from March 14-16 and the Bulldogs will face Miami Ohio on March 19. Six home games will follow that stretch with Butler hosting Ball State, Dayton, and Indiana. After hosting the Hoosiers on March 28, Butler will play in Bloomington on March 29 and 30.
 
Butler's final game before the start of BIG EAST play is a home contest on April 2 against Eastern Illinois. The 'Dawgs will play at Creighton, St. John's, and Villanova this year and host Georgetown, Seton Hall, Xavier, and UConn.
 
Xavier and UConn played for the conference championship a year ago with the Musketeers coming out on top. Butler will host them from May 3-5 and wrap up the regular season with three games vs. the Huskies from May 16-18. The final non-conference game of the 2024 campaign is also one to circle on the calendar as the Fighting Irish visit Bulldog Park on May 14.
 
Butler added 22 student-athletes to their roster over the off-season and will look to improve on their 2023 record. The Bulldogs won the weekend series at Seton Hall and at Georgetown a year ago. Head Coach Blake Beemer also posted a signature win at #9 UConn.
