Lancaster JetHawks News Release
(LANCASTER, CA) - Continuing what has been a string of remarkable guests, legendary Houston Astros first baseman Jeff Bagwell will appear on Wednesday's JetHawks Clubhouse Show. The JetHawks Clubhouse show airs live on Magic 1340 AM and streams live online at JetHawks.com from 5-6 PM. Amongst the other guests on the program will be former JetHawk and current Arizona Diamondbacks star Conor Jackson, as well as JetHawks manager Wes Clements.
A potential Hall of Famer, Bagwell spent his entire 15-year Major League career with the Astros and is the franchise's all-time leading home run hitter with 449. In 1994 he became the only Houston player to win the National League MVP Award when he hit .368 with 39 homers and 116 RBI. Bagwell was a four-time All-Star and was the National League Rookie of the Year in 1991. He won the Silver Slugger Award as the top hitting first baseman in the league three times and once won a Gold Glove Award as the best defensive first baseman. Bagwell is now a Special Assistant to General Manager Ed Wade.
Conor Jackson splashed onto the JetHawks scene in 2004, helping lead the club to its first Southern Division Championship. He hit .345 while in Lancaster and hit eleven home runs with 54 RBI in 67 games. The Texas-native made his Major League debut just one year later and has been a regular with the Arizona Diamondbacks for the last five seasons.
Fans will also have a chance to win free tickets to a JetHawks game and a night in the JetHawks luxury suite thanks to JetHawks Trivia. One winner will be selected to win four tickets to a JetHawks game while all those who play in the contest will be entered into a drawing to win a night in the JetHawks luxury suite during a game in August.
The JetHawks are home for a six-game homestand against the Stockton Ports and the Lake Elsinore Storm.
