Tickets for students of participating schools and children under 14 are $5 (excluding dugout, baseline and Field MVP) and are available in advance only at the UCLA and USC box offices or at Dodger Stadium on the day of the event. One ticket is good for both games.

Parking is $10 and available only at the gate on the day of the event. Both parking and stadium gates will open an hour prior to the first pitch at 10:00 a.m.

USC, UCLA, Michigan and San Diego have combined for 87 NCAA Tournament appearances, 33 College World Series appearances and 15 College World Series Championships.

The event dates to 2010, when Vanderbilt edged Oklahoma State, 7-6, and UCLA defeated USC, 6-1. In 2011, Georgia blanked St. Mary’s, 3-0, and USC shut down UCLA, 2-0. In 2012, Pepperdine topped UC Irvine, 3-2, and UCLA downed USC, 7-2. Due to renovations at Dodger Stadium, the 2013 games were played at UCLA’s Jackie Robinson Stadium, where Notre Dame trimmed Oklahoma, 6-5, in 11 innings, and UCLA beat USC, 6-1. The event did not take place in 2014, but in 2015 USC defeated UCLA, 8-4 and No. 6 TCU upended No. 1 Vanderbilt, 4-2. Last year, UCLA defeated USC, 5-3 in 14 innings and Oklahoma State tied #17 Mississippi State 5-5.
