Game time is 6:30 PM.

Also on Tuesday, the Captains will welcome Cleveland Browns Defensive Lineman John Hughes to Classic Park as part of Dawg Night Tuesdays.

He will throw out a ceremonial first pitch and be available for autographs before and during the Captains game that night.

Bark in the Park Night is also on Tuesday as dog owners are encouraged to bring their dogs to Classic Park when they purchase a $5 pooch pass. A portion of the proceeds from the pooch passes will benefit Lake Humane Society & Adoption Center. Dog owners may purchase their tickets for a special $7 price. Bark in the Park will take place on every remaining Tuesday home game this season.

In addition, the first 500 kids 12 and under in attendance at Tuesday's game will receive a full-size Webkinz plush dog. This is the fourth in a series of six different Webkinz dogs that will be given away at Tuesday games throughout the 2013 season.
