THE FLATS – Georgia Tech baseball will be broadcast on national TV nine times over the course of the 2026 season, the Atlantic Coast Conference and ESPN announced today. The No. 2/5 Yellow Jackets will be featured on ACC Network eight times over the course of five Top-25 ACC series and once on ESPN2 for a midweek battle against No. 9 Auburn. The remainder of Tech’s home games will be streamed live on ACC Network Extra.
This is the most national broadcasts the Jackets will be featured on in the last five seasons, reflecting the incredible excitement the 2026 team has already generated, including a 67% rise in season ticket sales for the upcoming season compared to 2025. The Yellow Jackets have been touted as having the best lineup in the country, on paper, by publications like D1 Baseball and have been named favorites to win the ACC in the preseason coaches’ poll for the first time since 2004.

2026 Georgia Tech Baseball
Georgia Tech enters the 2026 season as a consensus Top-5 team and the preseason ACC favorites. The Jackets boast the most preseason All-Americans in the nation according to Perfect Game’s Preseason All-American list. The Jackets received four All-American nods, including being the only program in the nation with multiple players listed on the 1st Team: CF Drew Burress (1st Team), C Vahn Lackey (1st Team), 2B Jarren Advincula (2nd Team) and UTL Alex Hernandez (3rd Team).
The Yellow Jackets were the highest ranked team in the conference across three different national preseason top-25 polls: No. 2 (Perfect Game), No. 4 (Baseball America) and No. 5 (D1 Baseball). The No. 2 preseason ranking is the fourth highest in program history and the highest since 2003, 2001 and 1994 when the Jackets were preseason No. 1. Tech earned its highest preseason ranking from Baseball America since 2006 (the last time GT reached the College World Series) and the No. 5 ranking from D1 Baseball was the best Tech has received since the publication began doing preseason rankings in 2014.
2026 will be the first season for new Head Coach James Ramsey, who has been serving as an assistant coach for the past seven seasons. Since Ramsey took over coaching the offense in 2019, Georgia Tech leads the ACC in batting average (.308), OPS (.918), OBP (.408), hits (3,961), doubles (796) and SAC Flies (208) and is second in runs (2,937), triples (84), home runs (547), RBI (2,709) and slugging (.510) with more to come in 2026.
First pitch for the highly anticipated 2026 season is scheduled for Friday, Feb. 13 at 4 p.m. when the Yellow Jackets host Bowling Green for a three-game series at Mac Nease Baseball Park at Russ Chandler Stadium.
