Nashua, NH - The Nashua Silver Knights are pleased to announce their 2017 schedule. The Silver Knights will start the defense of their 2016 title on the road against the Bristol Blues on Thursday, June 1st and will open up at home against the Pittsfield Suns on Friday, June 2nd at Holman Stadium at 6:45p.m. with postgame fireworks. On Opening Night we will also have our championship ring ceremony that will take place prior to the game where all the players, coaches and staff will receive their championship rings from the 2016 season!

The 2017 schedule consists of three Monday games, three Tuesday games, three Wednesday games, six Thursday games, five Friday games, four Saturday games, and five Sunday games, totaling 29 home games. The Silver Knights acquired an additional home game this season through a deal with the Wachusett Dirt Dawgs.

You can catch the Silver Knights on Wednesday, May 31st for our second annual alumni game. This is a great opportunity to come out and see the 2017 Silver Knights before the season starts and to see some of your favorite Silver Knights from seasons past.

The Silver Knights are also tentatively scheduled to play their annual exhibition game against the Lowell Spinners on Sunday, June 18th at LeLacheur Park in Lowell, MA at 6:05pm.

Other highlights in the schedule are Education Day on Tuesday, June 6th at 11:05 a.m. and a camp day game on Wednesday, July 26th at 11:05 a.m.

Saturday games will be at 6:05 p.m. after we polled our fans and found that the earlier start is more appealing.

The FCBL Playoffs will start immediately following the conclusion of the regular season. This year's playoff format has the top six teams making the playoffs. The two division winners will receive first round byes. The first round will be one game elimination with the No. 3 seed playing the No. 6 seed and the No. 4 seed playing the No. 5 seed. The second round will be a best-of-three series with the higher seed electing to play game one at home or games two and three at home. The winners of the second round will go on to the Championship Series with the same format as the prior round.

The Silver Knights are the 2011, 2012 and 2016 Champions of the Futures Collegiate Baseball League of New England. For more information about the team and league please contact Ronnie Wallace at Ronnie@nashuasilverknights.com
