Lynchburg, VA - Another Carolina League day, another rainout for the Wilmington Blue Rocks (12-7). The Rocks' Thursday morning series finale against the Lynchburg Hillcats (6-12) at City Stadium was postponed due to rain.

Come out and see the Star Wars 501st and Rebel Legion along with Chewbacca at Frawley Stadium. After the game, everyone in attendance will be treated to a fireworks show as every home Friday game means fireworks at Frawley Stadium in 2011.
