Moosic, Pa. - The SWB RailRiders (Triple-A/New York Yankees) will say "thank you" to all moms in attendance when they host the Lehigh Valley Ironpigs on Mother's Day, May 8, this year. The Sunday home game at PNC Field is set to begin at 1:05 p.m.
All moms are invited for a postgame run around the bases and to participate in the Diamond Dig, sponsored by Studio M Designs in Kingston. During the Dig, moms will search the warning track for the hidden treasure.

The pregame brunch menu includes scrambled eggs, home fries, breakfast sausage, hot dogs and soda for $25 per person.
Proud sons and daughters will also have the opportunity to wish their moms a happy Mother's Day on the video board by participating in the pregame brunch.
