NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The Nashville Sounds released their 2009 playing schedule today and will host 72 games at Greer Stadium during their 32nd season of competition.

New manager Don Money will lead the Sounds into Pacific Coast League action on Thursday, April 9th at Greer Stadium for the 2009 season opener, when they'll face the New Orleans Zephyrs at 7:00 p.m.
