DANVILLE, VA - For the first time this season fans can welcome home their 2009 Danville Braves on Monday for the home opener.

The fun starts Monday night with a 7 p.m. first pitch against the Kingsport Mets, who come in for a three-game series. The first 1,000 fans into the ballpark will receive a magnet schedule. Gates open at 6 p.m., so get to the park early, get your magnet schedule, grab a beverage and a hot dog, and find your seat to watch the Braves take on the Mets

Saturday, July 4 is Military Appreciation Night at the ballpark as all members of the military get a general admission ticket for just $1 with a valid military ID.
The Braves will have plenty to offer fans at Dan Daniel Memorial Park on this upcoming homestand and throughout the 2009 season as the least expensive entertainment in town, so come on out to the ballpark and watch the Braves compete for their fifth Appalachian League East Division title in the last six years.
