Frederick Keys News Release
FREDERICK, MD. -Sunday's series finale between the Frederick Keys and the Fayetteville Woodpeckers has been cancelled. This contest will not be made up on account it is the final meeting in the first half between the two teams.
Due to Sunday's cancellation, the Keys claim their second de-facto two-game sweep in as many weekends. Last Sunday, Frederick and Lynchburg were postponed at City Stadium. On Saturday, the Keys swept a doubleheader, winning each game in walk-off fashion by identical 3-2 scores.
Sunday's Candy Drop, presented by Advanced Helicopter Concepts, has been rescheduled to next Sunday, May 19 following the Keys 1 p.m. game against the Salem Red Sox. That same day there will be a rubber duck giveaway presented by Precision Heating and Cooling.
The Keys kickoff a four-game roadtrip to Wilmington on Monday night. First pitch is scheduled for 6:35 p.m. and the broadcast begins 15 minutes before first pitch on frederickkeys.com and the TuneIn radio app.
Following the series, the Keys return to Nymeo Field for Family Fitness Weekend presented by Premiere Dental Arts. Highlights include #ALLCAPS Night with an appearance by former Capitals player Mike Knuble, Hail to the Redskins Night with appearances by Gary Clark and Vernon Davis sponsored by PMSi, while Sunday is Knock Tobacco Out of the Park Day courtesy of Smoke Free Frederick. For tickets, fans can call the Keys at 301-815-9939 or visit frederickkeys.com.
The Frederick Keys are the Advanced-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, and play their home games at Nymeo Field at Harry Grove Stadium. Following the 2018 season, the Keys were named the winner of the Carolina League's Complete Franchise Award. This goes to a team in the league which demonstrates franchise stability and significant contributions to its community and the league. In 2019, the team will host the Carolina League All-Star Classic presented by Visit Frederick.
