Swoop vs. The Leprechaun

I'll post Pete's report from Spring Training a bit later on today, but first I wanted to put up a few pictures that were taken yesterday to promote the Silver vs. Gold Exhibition game on April 5th. Remember, that game is on a Monday this year, and first pitch is scheduled for 5:30 PM. Tickets are on sale now, and if you can't make it to the game, we'll have it for you live on ESPN Radio 1620 AM.

One More Before I Call It a Week

Joe Kernan is once again going to be playing for the Silver Hawks against Notre Dame in the Silver vs. Gold Exhibition game. Ben Hill of minorleaguebaseball.com picked up on the information from my press release yesterday, and expanded upon it here: http://bensbiz.mlblogs.com/archives/2010/03/a_president_without_precedent.html

Notre Dame/South Bend Exhibition Game

The date of the annual Silver vs. Gold Exhibition Game has been changed. Instead of Tuesday evening as it has been the last few years, it will now be Monday, April 5th, at 5:30 PM.

For those of you unfamiliar with this game, it's an exhibition game between the South Bend Silver Hawks and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. It's been a great game for the community the last couple of years, with the Silver Hawks owning a 2-0 record.

Opening Day of the Midwest League season is still Thursday, April 8th, at 6:30 PM against the Great Lakes Loons.
