Lansing Lugnuts News Release
LANSING, Mich. - The Lansing Lugnuts officially released their 2019 Promotional Schedule, headlined by the return of the Golden Bobblehead award-winning Backyard Baseball Night, and joined by all new, exciting theme nights, such as Oregon Trail Night, plus giveaways, fan-favorite promotions and more!
The Lugnuts' 24th Midwest League home opener arrives on Saturday, April 6th, with an Opening Night Block Party, including a winter hat giveaway presented by Auto-Owners Insurance and the first of 19 postgame LAFCU Fireworks Spectaculars!
