During the 2024 season, the protective netting will be extended out to cover all fans in general admission seating from potential balls leaving the playing field. Additional security cameras will be added to ensure the safety of fans attending games this season. For a full list of upgrades to The Couch, click here.
Dominant At The Couch
Deacon Nation showed tremendous support at David F. Couch Ballpark in 2023 as last year's season attendance of 57,814 fans set a new program record. Fans have kept the momentum rolling, already setting a new season ticket record for the 2024 season that more than quadrupled the 2023 season ticket number. In front of a regular season record-breaking crowd of 3,514 at David F. Couch Ballpark, the No.1 Wake Forest baseball team cruised to an Opening Night victory over Fordham, 9-3, last Friday night. With a clear home-field advantage, Wake has gone 55-10-1 over the last two seasons at The Couch, including a stellar 29-3 mark on their way to a program-record 54 wins in 2023.
What's Back?
Wake Forest will have a lot of new faces across the diamond when they take the field on Friday evening. At the dish, the Demon Deacons return 563 of 2269 (24.8%) at-bats led by Marek Houston (218 ABs ) and Nick Kurtz (190 ABs), while Jake Reinisch (73 ABs) and Chris Katz (63 ABs) will take on elevated roles in the lineup. On the mound, Wake Forest brings back 220.1 of 581.2 (37.9%) innings thrown, led by Friday night starter Josh Hartle's 102.1 during his sophomore campaign.
What's New?
Wake Forest returns just 14 lettermen to the 40-man roster and will rely heavily on the 26 new faces that comprise Team 110. Part of the reload includes the No. 1 transfer class by D1 Baseball with five top transfers in Tate Ballestero, Chase Burns, David Falco, Seaver King and Adam Tellier. Wake Forest freshman class came in at No. 31 by Perfect Game and includes three top 200 pitchers in Haiden Leffew, Blake Morningstar and Brody Shawn.
