CHARLESTON, SC - The Charleston RiverDogs are taking their show on the road and letting the RiverPups step up to the plate.

The RiverDogs and their "Be Your Own Fan" experience are going beyond the comfortable seats of Joseph P. Riley, Jr. Park as the team turns the spotlight on Ladson for a Spotlight Game Wednesday, June 12.

The Lowcountry's baseball faithful have packed Riley Park all season long to take part in the one-of-a-kind America's Pastime experience that is RiverDogs baseball. Now, that same fun-filled experience is coming to the fans.

Charlie T. RiverDog, public address announcer Ken Carrington, and the rest of the RiverDogs' staff will be at the Crowfield Little League at 6:30 pm. The park is located off College Park Road for a special exhibition matchup between two coach-pitch teams comprised of 7, 8 and 9-year-olds from the community.

The competing teams will be guests of the RiverDogs during this upcoming homestand when the club hosts the Augusta GreenJackets at Riley Park on June 15.

"This is our annual event when we take our home-game experience on the road to help youth teams enjoy baseball even more," said RiverDogs General Manager Dave Echols. "I know that the kids and parents enjoy this special opportunity, and to be honest, we as a staff enjoy it as well."

From their RBI Program to the pregame Field of Dreams and Youth Baseball Nights at The Joe, the RiverDogs have always been fans and supporters of youth baseball in the Lowcountry and take it to the next level with their annual Spotlight Game.
