Wild Things Host Playoff Games this Weekend
September 3, 2018 - Frontier League (FL)
Washington Wild Things News Release
The Wild Things have captured a playoff berth and their first East Division Championship since 2007, which locks the dates of playoff games at Wild Things Park. Washington will host Frontier League Division Series games Friday to Sunday, September 7-9, with game three Friday and games four and five, if necessary, Saturday and Sunday.
The first pitch times are as normal, as they were in the regular season this year at Wild Things Park. Games three and four are scheduled for 7:05 p.m. first pitches, Friday, September 7 and Saturday, September 8, respectively. Game five will get underway at 5:35 p.m. Sunday, September 9, if necessary. The series is a best of five.
Tickets for all playoff home games are $5 to sit anywhere in the park. Kids 12 and under receive free admission. You can get tickets at washingtonwildthings.com or by calling the box office at 724-250-9555 beginning Tuesday, September 3 at 9 a.m. All kids tickets, given they receive free admission, must be reserved by phone or bought at the box office. There is no online option for the free kids ticket. For online ticket purchases, you can also click the button at the bottom of this email.
CORRECTION: If the Wild Things advance past the Division Series, the one seed they've clinched will allow them to host Championship series games 1, 2 and 5, with five being played if necessary. The format for the FLCS switches to a 2-2-1 home games format, meaning the higher seed hosts Tuesday and Wednesday, September 11-12, then goes on the road, with a possible game 5 to be hosted Monday, September 17. Games three and four would be Friday, September 14 and Saturday, September 15.
The Wild Things will play the Evansville Otters in the Frontier League Division Series, with games one and two IN Evansville, scheduled for 7:30 p.m. EDT tomorrow, Tuesday, September 3, and Wednesday, September 4. Those games can be viewed at livestream.com/WildThings.
