The final season series game between the Railroaders and
Bombers occurs tonight at the Yard.
Both teams have met 9 times over the last month and a half with the
Bombers taking 5 wins to the Railroaders 4 victories. Fulton has a chance to even the series just as they have with the
Oilers.
Another
big point for tonight lies in the standings.
The Railroaders and Bombers are neck-to-neck in third and fourth place
with only a half game separation. With
only 7 games left, Fulton needs every win to move ahead towards overtaking the
second place Hoppers. There also
remains an outside chance to catch the Oilers, but it would require a collapse
by Owensboro who has only 5 games remaining to play.
There
will be plenty of homes game for the Railroaders over the next week. Tonight through Friday, Saturday off, Sunday
and Monday at home, then closing on the road next Tuesday. The only teams left for the Railroaders
(after Bombers tonight) will be the Hoppers for 3 games (Wednesday, Friday,
& Sunday) and the Miners (Thursday, Monday & away on Tuesday).
It
all starts tonight at the Yard, and it will be a big night for Fans as
well. Parkway Regional Hospital will be
hosting a silent action for the benefit of Relay for Life and cancer research. The Railroaders will be wearing special
jerseys with their number. These jerseys
will be auctioned during the game along with signed baseballs and pink
bats. Fans at home listening to
TeamLine will be able to call in their bids.
Phone numbers will be given out over the webcast and posted online.
Don’t
miss the excitement of Railroaders baseball as the final week of the 2014 regular
season begins. Post Season Player

ReplyDeleteWeather is great in Fulton for tonight's game!
Hi John, are you not feeling well? Your voice sounds a bit different. I can hear you fine in this 98 degree weather out here in Oregon. It's a better evening for baseball there than it is here so I'll just stay inside here in the a/c listening with my glass of ice water. Let's keep up with the wins Railroaders!! I like the new picture of the team on the roster page too!
