FRIDAY FUN WASHED AWAY

 SIOUX CITY, Iowa – With the weather feeling more like a late fall day, the Sioux City Explorers and Cleburne Railroaders were set to continue their four-game series Friday night at Lewis and Clark Park. Unfortunately, wet field conditions from the on-and-off-again rains have forced the postponement of the game and will have the two teams play a Saturday doubleheader.

The teams will now play two seven-inning games as part of a doubleheader Saturday night, July 8, with the first pitch at 5:05 p.m. Gates will open at 4:00 p.m.

The night will be packed full of promotions. The first 500 fans receive an Explorers Pennant Banner thanks to Aetna. Plus, post-game fireworks thanks to Lantis Fireworks with Explorers 4th of July game worn Jersey Auction during the game. Also, FREE Vince Fernandez T-shirts will be thrown during both games, thanks to Absolute Screen Art.

Tickets for tonight’s game may be redeemed for a future game on the Explorers regular season schedule. Stop by the Explorers box office or call (712) 277-9467 to do so.
