"We are very excited for our franchise to get the opportunity to play at 'America's most beloved ballpark,'" said Salem Red Sox general manager Todd Stephenson. "We are fortunate that the logistics were possible to make this tremendous opportunity a reality." As part of a doubleheader, the Lowell Spinners, Boston's Single-A affiliate, will play the Jamestown Jammers (Single-A affiliate of the Florida Marlins) at 12:05 p.m. Salem will play Potomac Nationals (Advanced Single-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals) immediately following the conclusion of the Spinners' contest. The Carolina League matchup will be broadcast on the Salem Red Sox flagship station WFIR 960 by Salem Red Sox play-by-play announcer, Evan Lepler.
