South Bend Cubs News Release
The biggest Independence Day extravaganza in Michiana is happening this weekend at Four Winds Field in Downtown South Bend. The South Bend Cubs return home following the team's longest road trip of the season, with home games on July 4, 5, and 6. The Cubs will take on the Peoria Chiefs, High-A affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals, as the Midwest League's second half is full steam ahead. Friday and Saturday's games begin at 7:05 PM, while Sunday's finale is set for 2:05 PM.
SPECIALITY FOOD AND DRINK OPTIONS
SMASH burger, located on the first-base side of the concourse, has a popular burger returning this weekend, with 'Peoria Patties' making its way back into the rotation. A big seller in the first homestand of the season, don't miss out as this is the final time this year it will be offered! Four freshly grilled beef patties and four slices of American cheese, are served piled with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pickles. Available at SMASH Burger.
Keep a lookout for the homestand food items of the weekend, with an Americana flare. First, at the Sweet Spot located on the concourse adjacent to Gate A, S'mores Nachos are cinnamon sugar tortilla chips with marshmallow topping and chocolate syrup. Also for this weekend only is a Classic BLT Sandwich, available at the Waveland and Sheffield concession stands.
Located on the concourse behind home plate, the Round Bar will offer another rendition of its opponent cocktail. This week's 'Bomb Pop' mixes vodka with lemonade, along with splashes of blue curaçao and grenadine. Like the SMASH burger, it'll be available throughout the duration of the homestand. This will be available at all bar locations.
