Hill City Howlers News Release
Lynchburg, Va. - Today's game between the Lynchburg Hillcats and the Frederick Keys has been postponed due to rain. The Keys do not return to City Stadium in the first half, so therefore the game will be made up as part of a double-header at Nymeo Field in Frederick on Thursday, May 30.
The double-header games will be seven innings in length, with approximately 30 minutes between contests. Game time for Game One of the double-header will be announced at a later date.
Following an off day on Monday, the Hillcats will head to Winston-Salem on Tuesday to take on the Dash in a three-game series. First pitch from BB&T Ballpark is at 7 p.m.
Max Gun and Anders Jorstad will be on the air at 6:50 p.m. with the Hillcats pre-game show on TuneIn Radio and the Radio434 App.
The Hillcats return home on Friday, May 10 to begin a season-long ten game home stand.

Additionally, Hillcats vs. Cancer is on May 17, Pirates vs. Royalty Night is on May 18 and Cats Cares is on May 25, where all fans can enter the game for free but are asked to give a donation at the box office of their choice to a pre-selected charity.
