State College Spikes News Release


WILLIAMSPORT, PA -- Tuesday's season opener between the State College Spikes and the Williamsport Crosscutters has been suspended due to rain. It will be made up on Thursday, June 21st beginning at 6:05 pm as part of a doubleheader. The Spikes were trailing by the score of 2-0 heading into the top of the third when the rains came, forcing the suspension. On Thursday, the game will resume from that point and will play through the regularly scheduled nine innings. The second game will begin a half hour after the completion of game one, and will be a seven-inning contest.

The rainout means that the Spikes will begin their season on Wednesday evening in the friendly confines of Medlar Field at Lubrano Park. RHP Moises Robles will make the start for the Spikes and will be opposed by RHP Drew Naylor.

Gates will open at 5:00 pm for the 7:05pm game. Fans who arrive early will be able to enjoy a free concert from national recording artist Illinois in Porter Gardens beginning at 5:00. In addition, Spikes Happy Hour featuring food and drink specials, will run from 5 - 7:00 pm. Finally, there will be complimentary Hot Air Balloon rides from 5-7:00 pm, and the first 5,000 fans in attendance will receive Spikes magnet schedules courtesy of PSECU.

Tickets are still available for the home opener on June 20th, and they can be purchased over the phone by calling 877 - 99 - SPIKES, logging on to StateCollegeSpikes.com, or by visiting the Medlar Field at Lubrano Park box office beginning at 9:00am.
