baseball season has officially returned to NEPA, much to the delight of fans eager for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Railriders’ opening game this Friday, which marks the franchise’s 5,000th game. As they prepare for their home opener on April 8th against the Rochester Red Wings, PNC Field is set to unveil significant upgrades, including a dazzling new LED lighting system that will enhance the game-day experience. The Railriders are also introducing an expanded home clubhouse for players and enticing new menu items, like the ‘walk-off chicken sandwich’ and a black pepper maple bacon burger. Fans can look forward to engaging events, such as 90s night and the upcoming ‘amazing golf ball whacker night’ featuring special guest Christopher McDonald, known for his role as Shooter McGavin in “Happy Gilmore.” The team’s commitment to improving the fan experience speaks to their long-standing relationship with loyal supporters.
