"Our fan base continues to grow year after year, and we are so thankful for the way people from across Pulaski and the New River Valley continue to embrace our ballpark and all it has to offer. We look forward to welcoming our fans to the ballpark for playoff baseball this weekend and celebrating this attendance record with the biggest fireworks show in Calfee Park history Saturday night."
