Texas Tech baseball making progress with renovations

The Texas Tech baseball field formerly known as Dan Law Field is making some serious headway.

Texas Tech's athletic department released new photos of the progress of the approximately $5 million project Thursday. Construction needs to be complete by Feb. 17 when the Red Raiders open their season against Missouri State.

Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park is taking its shape as all the steel is in place and the suites, TV and radio booths and the pressbox are complete.

Dan Law Field opened in 1988, but was showing its age at the end of the 2011 season. It had been passed up by quite a few other college baseball stadiums, most notably the facilities at Baylor, Texas, Texas A&M, TCU and Oklahoma.

Aside from providing baseball fans with a better experience, Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park is expected to help the Red Raiders in recruiting. A $75,000 renovation to the Texas Tech clubhouse on the stadium's site was completed in 2009.

If you click the link and then click on the Jan. 5 photo album, you can see the stadium looks in its present form. There are also links to older photo albums to help you get a feel for what the stadium looked like before Thursday.
