Moosic, Pa. - The SWB RailRiders (Triple-A/New York Yankees) will say "thank you" to all dads in attendance when they host the Gwinnett Braves (Braves) on Father's Day, June 19, this year. The Sunday home game at PNC Field is set to begin at 1:05 p.m.

Proud sons and daughters will also have the opportunity to wish their dads a happy Father's Day on the video board by participating in the pregame tailgate.
SWB opens a series against the Gwinnett (Braves) on Friday night, June 17, at PNC Field.
