FREDERICKSBURG, VA - The Fredericksburg Nationals have received their first player on a rehabilitation assignment, as infielder Jecksson Flores was added to the roster today from Double-A Harrisburg.

He spent the 2019 season with the Triple-A Omaha Storm Chasers, batting .249 with eight home runs and 52 RBI in 116 games. He will wear uniform number 3, previously worn by outfielder Ricardo Méndez.

The FredNats wrap up their series and homestand against the Salem Red Sox this afternoon at 1:35. Fans can listen live to the radio broadcast on the FredNats Baseball Network with FredNats On Deck beginning at 1:20, or watch a video stream with a subscription to MiLB.tv.

The Fredericksburg Nationals are a minor league affiliate of the Washington Nationals in the Low-A East League.
