July 29, 2015 - Texas Collegiate League (TCL)
East Texas PumpJacks News Release


Close out the Pump Jacks' inaugural season in Tyler with a promotion-packed final regular season homestand beginning Thursday. And stay tuned for the playoffs!

After clinching a berth in the TCL playoffs, the East Texas Pump Jacks will be bringing the regular season to a close with a six-game homestand jam packed with events, giveaways, and promotional nights. The Jacks would like to welcome you to Irwin UT Tyler Ballpark as they wrap up a historic season and prepare for a championship run.

The week-long party will get underway with Thirsty Thursday presented by Miller Lite, when the Jacks and Victoria Generals battle for playoff positioning. Fans will receive discounts on beer and soft drinks, and adults in attendance will receive free Pump Jacks koozies. So come out beat the heat at the final Thirsty Thursday of the season with the help of the Pump Jacks and the original light beer, Miller Lite.

Friday night will be a hit as well when Brookshire's and the Jacks combine to bring you Family Fun Night at the ballpark. Logo mini bats will be handed out at the front gate, and fans can get player autographs and photos at the Pump Jacks pregame Meet & Greet. Fans can even enjoy special discounts at the concessions stand! Family Fun Night is a celebration that the whole family can enjoy, so come on out and have some fun courtesy of Brookshire's and the Pump Jacks.

Saturday night gives fans a chance to take home a piece of East Texas history as the Jacks open a two-game series with the Brazos Valley Bombers on Photo Giveaway Night presented by Walgreens. The Pump Jacks will be giving away an 8x10 glossy photo, the third in a collector's series celebrating the team's inaugural season in Tyler. The Jacks will also have the first two photos in the series available that night, so fans can collect the entire trio just by coming to the game, all courtesy of Walgreens!

The Pump Jacks will close out their series with the Bombers on Sunday then take a day off on Monday before their final home series of the regular season next Tuesday and Wednesday.

Tuesday will be Kids Night, brought to you by our friends at Traditions Restaurant and Catering. Kids 12 years old and under get tickets for half price, which means tickets for kids start at just $2.50!

The series and homestand come to a close on Wednesday, but the Pump Jacks and Raising Cane's are keeping the mood light with Pump Jacks Stress Ball Giveaway Night. The cushy balls with both the Jacks and Raising Cane's logos are perfect for testy two-strike situations and late-game drama, so come on out to Irwin Field and relieve some stress with the Pump Jacks and Raising Cane's.

The regular season will come to a close when the Jacks visit the Bombers for a pair of games next Thursday and Friday.

By that time, the playoff situation will be set in stone, and the Pump Jacks will travel for a one-game playoff on August 8th with their eyes set on advancing to the TCL Championship Series. If the Jacks reach the finals, the best-of-three series will likely begin with a home game on Sunday, August 9. So keep pulling for the Pump Jacks and cheer them into the postseason!

Fans who are unable to join in on the festivities can tune in to our live Ustream broadcast or follow the game with live scoring updates on our Pointstreak feed.
