Portland Sea Dogs News Release
Portland, Maine- Sunday's Portland Sea Dogs game against the New Hampshire Fisher Cats (Blue Jays) scheduled for 1:00 PM at Hadlock Field has been postponed due to rain. The game will be made-up as part of a single admission doubleheader on Monday, September 4th at 1:00 PM. The two teams will play two-seven inning games. This is the eighth rain out at Hadlock Field this season.
Fans with tickets for tonight's game may exchange their tickets at the Hadlock Field Box Office for a ticket of equal or lesser value to Monday's doubleheader, any potential 2006 Sea Dogs playoff game or any Sea Dogs 2007 home game up to July 1, 2007, subject to availability. Any questions regarding tickets should be directed to the Sea Dogs Box Office at 207-879-9500 or by email to tickets@seadogs.com.
The Field of Dreams/ Fan Appreciation Day scheduled for this afternoon will take place prior to Monday's game. The Field of Dreams promotion will start at 12:40 PM with the first pitch starting at 1:00 PM.
The Binghamton Mets game at the Connecticut Defenders was also rained out on Sunday. The two teams will play a doubleheader tomorrow at Dodd Stadium in Norwich, Connecticut. Portland's magic number to clinch a playoff spot remains one. A Portland win or a Binghamton loss tomorrow clinches a playoff spot for the Sea Dogs. Monday is the final day of the regular season. Should the Sea Dogs finish a tie with the Binghamton Mets for the final playoff spot, the two teams would host a one game playoff at Hadlock Field on Tuesday at 6:00 PM.
The Eastern League playoffs are scheduled to begin on Wednesday, September 6th. The first two games of the Northern Division Championship would take place at Waterfront Park in Trenton, New Jersey, home of the first place Trenton Thunder. Should the Sea Dogs qualify for post-season play games three and four of the Northern Division Championship would take place at Hadlock Field on Friday, September 8th and Saturday, September 9th (if necessary) at 6:00 PM
