Lynchburg Hillcats News Release


Fayetteville, N.C. - Today's game between the Lynchburg Hillcats and the Fayetteville Woodpeckers has been postponed due to rain. The game will be made up as part of a double-header on Wednesday, July 24. First pitch for Game One is scheduled for 6 p.m.

Tuesday marks the third consecutive day that the Hillcats have been washed out. After a rainout on Sunday against Frederick, Monday's twin bill against the Keys was canceled due to a power outage at City Stadium.

Wednesday marks Lynchburg's eighth double-header of the season, while it will be the team's sixth on the road. In twin bills this year, the Hillcats are 6-8.

Max Gun and Anders Jorstad will be on the air at 5:50 p.m. with the Hillcats pre-game show on TuneIn Radio and the Radio434 App.

Lynchburg returns home on Friday, July 26 for the start of a three-game series against the Winston-Salem Dash, A-Adv. affiliate of the Chicago White Sox. Homestand highlights include post-game fireworks on Friday and Saturday night, with post-game kids run the bases on Sunday. Friday's fireworks show is presented by 3rd Street Brewing, while Saturday's is brought to you by Central Virginia Federal Credit Union.
