October 20, 2015

FREDERICK, Md. - Fans who decide to become Frederick Keys season ticket holders as well as those who renew their plans for 2016 are in for a treat. For the first time, the team will be offering a double-bobblehead with the purchase of ANY ticket plan. This one-of-a-kind item will feature former Keys Manny Machado and Jonathan Schoop, Frederick's double play combination during the team's run to the 2011 Mills Cup Championship.

This bobblehead is an EXCLUSIVE item for Keys ticketholders and will not be offered to the general public. Fans can chose from a wide range of ticket options including the Full Season Plan, 10 and 15 game plans, the Build-a-Plan, as well as the popular Reserved Seat Flex Pack. As an additional incentive, individuals who renew their plans by October 30 will receive their current price for the 2016 season.

The only Major League player to suit up for all 162 games in 2015, Machado enjoyed a breakout season for the Orioles batting .286 with 35 home runs and 86 RBIs. All three marks were career-highs for the 23-year-old. A member of the Keys in 2011, Machado batted .257 with 11 home runs and 50 RBIs in 101 games while serving as the team's shortstop. Named the Mills Cup Series MVP, he posted four RBIs in the series-clinching win.

Schoop rehabbed with the Keys this past season while recovering from a right knee sprain. In two games he went 3-for-9 with a home run before returning to the Orioles on July 5. In 86 games with Baltimore this season, Schoop hit .279 with 15 home runs and 39 RBIs, while 32 of his 85 hits went for extra-bases. Promoted to the Keys from Low-A Delmarva in June 2011, the Curacao native batted .271 with five home runs and 37 RBIs over 77 games for the orange and black that season.  

To purchase a 2016 ticket plan, fans can call the Keys group office at 301-815-9900.

The Frederick Keys kickoff their 2016 campaign on Thursday, April 7 against the Myrtle Beach Pelicans on the Grand Strand. Planning is already underway for next season, while a tentative schedule complete with game times is available at frederickkeys.com. A full promotional schedule will be released at a later date.
