Rio Grande Valley WhiteWings News Release


HARLINGEN - The North American League's Rio Grande Valley WhiteWings announced on Wednesday that they have signed right-handed pitcher Eduardo "Eddie" Dennis Jr. (6'5', 205, Bronx CC) for the 2011 season. Dennis is the son of WhiteWings manager Eddie Dennis and is no stranger to the WhiteWings.

While completing his collegiate career at Bronx Community College, Dennis would often be around the WhiteWings during the summer months, after the college season came to a close. Eddie has also spent time pitching in the Dominican Republic.

"I want everyone to join the team not because he is Eddie Jr. but because he is ready," WhiteWings manager Eddie Dennis said. "He has been around the professional game for awhile playing the Dominican Republic and spring training, he is going to be one of our better arms."

The WhiteWings open the season with a four game series against the Edinburg Roadrunners at Edinburg Baseball Stadium May 25-through-28. The WhiteWings host the new McAllen Thunder in their home opening series from May 29-through-June 1.

Season and group tickets are on sale now and can be purchased by calling the WhiteWings at 956-423-WING (9464) or in person at Harlingen Field. Individual game tickets will go on sale closer to opening day. Log onto www.whitewingsbaseball.com for more information on ticket sales, player signings and game promotions.
