"What better way to celebrate the 4th of July than by wearing the Primaries' red, white and blue to celebrate our country's birthday while taking on the future New York Yankees," said Fisher Cats President/General Manager Rick Brenner. "And no July 4th celebration would be complete without an Atlas Fireworks Show for our fans after the game."
