Charleston RiverDogs News Release
Charleston, SC - The Charleston RiverDogs have one homestand remaining in the regular season and are on the cusp of clinching a third-consecutive berth in the Carolina League playoffs. If that isn't enough reason to join us at The Joe from August 29-September 3 as the team hosts the Myrtle Beach Pelicans, we have more to entice you. The whole week will carry with it a theme of honor and appreciation. From the induction of three MLB standouts to the Charleston Baseball Hall of Fame, to a night dedicated to the men and women who serve our country, we will close the season with plenty of pomp and circumstance.
Below is a list of all the fun the RiverDogs have planned for the week:
Tuesday, August 29, 7:05 p.m.: Charleston Baseball Hall of Fame Induction/Dog Day presented by Twisted Tea: Three Charleston-area natives and former Major League Baseball standouts will be inducted into the Charleston Baseball Hall of Fame's Class of 2023 prior to the game. The star-studded class is made up of Brett Gardner, Justin Smoak and Matt Wieters. The trio will sign autographs for fans during the RiverDogs game. For the final time this season, the RiverDogs and Twisted Tea invite you to bring your pup to The Joe for tonight's game. Several between-inning games will feature our four-legged friends and dog dishes filled with water will be positioned throughout the concourse. In addition, enjoy $2 hot dogs and beer.
