EUGENE, Ore. (AP) - The Hult Center says Kevin Costner and his band Modern West will do benefit shows for the University of Oregon's baseball program May 30-31.

Costner has done such baseball films as ``For Love of the Game,'' ``Field of Dreams'' and ``Bull Durham.''

He is a friend of the university's new baseball coach, George Horton.

Proceeds are to go toward a university Baseball Equity Fund and a new baseball stadium.

The family-friendly concerts are scheduled at the Hult Center's Silva Concert Hall, with tickets starting at $25 and ranging to $70.
