Once the season starts, we’ll use this space to highlight top performers and notable events of the previous week but for now we’ll catch up on some off-season news from around the league.

Keep Turning Left

The Trenton Thunder are set to host the Third Annual Dover vs. Pocono Celebrity Softball Game on Tuesday, April 21st. The squads will feature the two most recent winners of the Daytona 500 as Dale Earnhardt Jr. will lead Team Dover and Joey Logano will captain Team Pocono. The rest of the rosters will be made up of members of national and local motorsports media, as well as other local media personalities, and a few other special guests.

Opening Day Guarantee

Despite a harsh winter that has brought historic snowfall and record cold temperatures to Portland, the Sea Dogs are guaranteeing the team will be playing baseball on April 9th at Hadlock Field. If they are not able to for any reason, the team will double the normal rain check policy by providing two tickets to a future 2015 Sea Dogs game for each Opening Day ticket exchanged.

First Friday

Richmond is set to host their First Friday Fan Fest & Ticketpalooza in four days. The event will officially kickoff the Squirrels season-long Free Shirt Friday and Happy Hour promotion and will also feature live music, concession items and a sneak peak at the new upgrades taking place at The Diamond.
