Charlotte Knights News Release
With just 17 home games left this season, the Charlotte Knights are pleased to announce a full schedule of games and opponents for the upcoming 2022 season. Next season will mark the eighth at Truist Field in Uptown Charlotte, home of one of the most visited venues in all of Minor League Baseball since opening on April 11, 2014.
FULL 144-GAME SCHEDULE RETURNS - INCLUDING 72 HOME GAMES
For the first time since 2016, a full 144-game slate returns and the Knights will host 72 home games at Truist Field. The Knights will begin the 2022 campaign on the road with a six-game series against the Norfolk Tides (Baltimore Orioles) in Norfolk, VA from Tuesday, April 5 to Sunday, April 10.
Much like in 2021, six-game series between teams will be norm with Mondays representing a league-wide off day. There are a few exceptions as the Knights will play a pair of three-game series on the road in Jacksonville (July 22-24 after the mid-season break and September 19-21 to finish the season) and on two Mondays.
WHEN IS THE HOME OPENER?
The 2022 Knights home opener at Truist Field will take place on Tuesday, April 12 in the first of a six-game series against the Memphis Redbirds (St. Louis Cardinals). The set will mark the first time ever that Memphis will face the Knights at the Uptown Charlotte ballpark.
