Quad Cities River Bandits News Release

The Quad Cities River Bandits announce a change in the start time of the scheduled game on July 3 against the Burlington Bees.

First pitch for the Friday night game has been changed to 6:05 p.m. in order to accommodate the City of Davenport's Red White and Boom Independence Day fireworks display. Previously a 7:00 p.m. first pitch, the game will be televised live on Mediacom Connections Channel 22.

The River Bandits would also like to note revised game times for two other live television broadcasts that have been pushed back five minutes on August 6 and August 16. Below is an updated list of the new game times for the affected dates:

Friday, July 3 vs. Burlington - 6:05 p.m.

Thursday, August 6 vs. Cedar Rapids - 7:05 p.m.

Sunday, August 16 vs. Peoria - 6:05 p.m.

UP NEXT: The River Bandits conclude their final homestand of the first half with Rudy's Tacos Night on a Rockin' Saturday, starting with a Brett Wallace bobblehead doll giveaway before winding down with a post-game concert by Rockin' Jake! Quad Cities will then hit the road for nine games before breaking for the All-Star Game on June 23, and the River Bandits will return to Modern Woodmen Park on May 25 to open the second half of the 2009 season with an eight-game homestand against Kane County and Burlington.
