The Dukes, Add a Fireworks Show after the Second Game
01:52PM / Wednesday, July 09, 2008
PITTSFIELD - The Pittsfield Dukes have announced plans to add a fireworks show at Wahconah Park following a doubleheader versus Torrington starting at 6 p.m. on Friday, July 18.
Radio Stations WBRK 1340 AM and STAR 101.7 FM will present the fireworks extravaganza following the success of the Dukes' two previous shows on July 4 and 5. Almost seven thousand fans packed Wahconah Park to see back to back comeback wins for the Dukes and the fireworks shows.
The Dukes will host the Torrington Twisters for a doubleheader on July 18 beginning at six o'clock. These two teams were rained out on July 3 at Wahconah Park and the first game on the 18 will be the makeup game. The Twisters and Dukes will play two games, each scheduled for seven innings, and then STAR 101.7 FM and WBRK AM 1340 will sponsor the fireworks show after the second game.
Starting tomorrow, fans can tune into WBRK 1340 AM and STAR 101.7 FM and can receive free tickets by listening to both stations between six and nine in the morning.
Fans can listen to the game to and all Pittsfield Dukes games on the NECBL Broadcast Network by going to the site at http://www.teamline.cc/sportpage?teamcode=6301&eventcode=5
Tickets are still available for the doubleheader at Wahconah Park. Tickets can be purchased at the Dukes box office at 105 Wahconah Street or by calling 413-447-3853(DUKE). Tickets for the make-up game are redeemable for any of the remaining Dukes home games.
