San Angelo Colts News Release
San Angelo, Texas - Friday's scheduled series opener between the visiting Alexandria Aces and the San Angelo Colts has been cancelled because of heavy rain in the area.
The game will not be made up as the Colts will play their last two remaining home games over the next two days, Saturday, August 18 and Sunday, August 19. Each game is scheduled for nine innings and each contest will start at 7:05 p.m.
Fans can redeem their tickets from Friday's rain-out for admittance into either of the two remaining regular season home games.
Throwback Jersey Night, which was set for Friday, will now take place on Saturday, August 18. The Colts will be wearing retro jerseys, modeled after the Astros' 1980's jerseys, and they will be auctioned off after the game by a live auctioneer.
In addition, since Friday was supposed to be Military Appreciation Night, the Colts will now grant free admission to all active military to each game the next two nights. Military members need to present a valid ID for free admittance.
Saturday will still be a Doc Edwards Bobblehead Doll giveaway for the first 1,000 fans through the gate, sponsored by the San Angelo Community Medical Center. Also on Saturday, one lucky fan will win a used car, courtesy of Western Motors.
Sunday is Fan Appreciation Night and the final home game of the 2007 season. Adobe Signs and T-shirts sponsors a post-game Fireworks Show after the series finale with the Aces. Sunday is also Angelo Place Night, as one fan will win one year without rent at Angelo Place Apartments.
