The new schedule comes alongside with the unveiling of the 120 Player Development Licensees between MLB and MiLB clubs. MLB Commissioner, Rob Manfred expressed, “we are excited to unveil this new model, which not only provides a pipeline to the Majors, but continues the Minor Leagues’ tradition of entertaining millions of families in hundreds of communities.”

The 66ers 2021 schedule will feature 10 weekends of games between May and September, and fans can look forwarded to the return of fan favorite theme nights and giveaways, as well as new and noteworthy promotions that will be released at a later date in addition to game times.

“We have missed being a gathering place for our community and are more than excited to safely invite fans back into the ballpark for some much-needed family friendly entertainment,” expressed general Manager, Joe Hudson.
