Rochester Red Wings News Release
Rochester, NY - The red-hot Rochester Red Wings return to the Flower City on Saturday to open an action-packed, 8-game, 9-day homestand highlighted by three fireworks shows, six giveaways and an appearance by the famous ZOOperstars.
Tickets for all upcoming games are still available and can be purchased at the Red Wings ticket office, over the phone at (585) 423-WING (9464) or online at RedWingsBaseball.com.
The homestand blasts off with an ESL Federal Credit Union post-game fireworks show following Saturday's 7:05 p.m. game against the Toledo Mud Hens. Also, the first 1,500 kids 14 & under will receive a Red Wings backpack courtesy of Zweigle's, 100.5 The Drive and News 8. We're not done yet as Harry Canary, Cow Ripken Jr. and the rest of the zany ZOOperstars return to Frontier Field to entertain fans of all ages on Saturday, as well.
The weekend fun at Frontier Field continues Sunday with a Mr. Steve pre-game concert in the Walk of Fame from 11:15 am to 12:15 pm courtesy of WXXI. A special concert ticket is needed in addition to a game ticket as gates will open early only for those attending the show.
Sunday is also Bark in the Park presented by Coldwater Animal Hospital. Fans are encouraged to bring their four-legged friends to the ballpark and enjoy the game from our designated dog area in the Walk of Fame. Clifford the Big Red Dog will be here as well to visit with young fans.
As with every Sunday home game, all kids 14 and under will be invited on the field to run the bases with Spikes and Mittsy presented by Chili's Bar & Grill following the 1:05 p.m. game.
The Wings and Mud Hens continue their series Monday with a 7:05 p.m. game on YMCA Recognition Night. The first 1,500 fans through the gates will receive a Red Wings mini-bat courtesy of the YMCA. It's also another Kids Eat Free Monday presented by Basch & Nickerson. The first 500 kids 12 and under will receive a voucher to be redeemed for a hot dog, snack item and soda.
The four-game series concludes Tuesday with a 1:05 p.m. matinee at Frontier Field. It's another M&T Bank/Messenger Post Media Family Four Pack Day. Be sure to stop by the box office and get four reserved seat tickets, four hot dogs, four 12-oz. sodas and a 2013 yearbook for only $32 in advance of game day - a savings of $15.00!
After an off day on Wednesday, the Wings welcome the Gwinnett Braves (Atlanta) to town for the only time this season for a four-game series beginning Thursday night at 7:05 p.m.
