San Bernardino, CA - The Inland Empire 66ers, a Class 'A' affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers, released their schedule for the 2011 season today.

The 66ers will celebrate the start of the 2011 season with a seven-game homestand at Arrowhead Credit Union Park which will begin on Thursday, April 7th against their I-10 rivals, the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes. Following a four-game set with the Quakes, the High Desert Mavericks will visit San Bernardino to finish out Opening Week.

The 2011 schedule includes 12 home meetings between the 66ers and their "Future Freeway Series" rivals, the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes.
