Win a the Jersey of a Potential Big Leaguer Tonight

August 4, 2011 - Texas Collegiate League (TCL)
East Texas PumpJacks News Release


If I told you that you could win a Josh Hamilton jersey, you'd probably jump at the chance, right'

What if you had the chance to win Hamilton's jersey long before he became the AL MVP, before thousands of people would have fought you for it' You'd probably jump at that chance, too.

Well you better be at historic Driller Park tonight, then.

The Jacks are holding their second "Shirt Off Our Back" Night tonight. They'll be wearing special jerseys for the first game of the doubleheader, and fans will be taking many of them home after the game.

That's right. The same nationally-ranked players you've been cheering for all season, the same all-stars you've rooted to victory, the same Pump Jacks you've hoped will make the big leagues some day - you can take home a jersey tonight.

Fans can win two ways. You can enter a drawing to win a jersey. Just fill out the entry blank and you can go home a winner. Or bid on a jersey throughout the evening and take home your favorite Pump Jack.

The best part about the auction' All the proceeds go to charity. Funds raised through the jersey auction will go to the Full Count Foundation, which will in turn use the money for kids in East Texas. So not only could you win a jersey, but you'll be helping a good cause, too.

We'd like to thank our generous sponsors for the evening - K-K Mobbs Construction, Ave Can Properties and Marco Inspection Services - without whom this evening wouldn't be possible.

Did we mention it's also Thirsty Thursday' Enjoy $1 draft beers, $3 frozen margaritas and 50-cent soft drinks! Oh, it's also a Winning Inning night, so if the Pump Jacks score three or more runs in any one inning, all fans win a coupon for a free value menu item from Jack in the Box!

Plus, it's a doubleheader against a team the Pump Jacks could very well face in the TCL Championship Series! Gates open at 5:00 p.m. and the first game starts at 6:05 p.m. Two games for the price of one, and all the fun and promotions to go with it.
