OKLAHOMA CITY – The Oklahoma City Comets take the field to debut their new look and uniforms at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark as they open the home portion of their 2025 schedule at 7:05 p.m. Tuesday against the El Paso Chihuahuas.
The Triple-A affiliate of the 2024 World Champion Los Angeles Dodgers rebranded to the Oklahoma City Comets in October 2024 with a name that boasts strong ties to Oklahoma. The Comets brand honors Oklahoma native and Hall of Fame center fielder Mickey Mantle, known as the “Commerce Comet.” The team’s new space theme celebrates Oklahoma’s ties to the aerospace industry while also drawing inspiration from the parent club Dodgers’ legendary “shooting ball” logo.
Opening Night fireworks are scheduled to follow tomorrow night’s game, which falls on a $2 Tuesday. All Tuesday Comets home games feature $2 select beer, soda and bottled water from a line of Miller, Coors and Pepsi products. Select COOP Ale Works draft beer will also be available at a special rate of $3, including the new Comets Ale.
Additionally, Braum’s Friends and Family 4-Pack tickets are available for Tuesday’s Opening Night game. The deal starts at $47 and includes four Comets game tickets, four Comets hats and four Braum’s restaurant vouchers that can be redeemed at any Oklahoma Braum’s location.
Oklahoma City’s Opening Week continues with games at 7:05 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday against the Chihuahuas, the Triple-A affiliate of the San Diego Padres.
For Friday’s “In My OKC Era” night, enjoy friendship bracelet making, a costume contest, as well as music-themed entertainment and contests in celebration of pop superstardom. A postgame fireworks show is scheduled to follow the 7:05 p.m. game. Additionally, Braum’s Friends and Family 4-Pack tickets are available for Friday night’s game.
Gates open at 5 p.m. for Saturday’s 6:05 p.m. game and the first 1,000 fans through the gates receive an OKC Comets hat.
Groups of 10 or more can enjoy all-you-can-eat ballpark fare, a terrace-level game ticket and an OKC hat for the price of $27 per person Saturday. Please call (405) 218-2100 or email groups@okccomets.com to purchase group tickets.
The first home series of the season against El Paso then wraps up with a 2:05 p.m. game Sunday. Select Oklahoma City players will be available to sign autographs for fans prior to first pitch, and following the games, kids can take the field to run the bases.
New manager Scott Hennessey joins Oklahoma City for his first season after serving as manager for the Dodgers’ Double-A affiliate Tulsa Drillers since the middle of the 2017 season through 2024. He is joined in the OKC dugout by returning hitting coach Manny Burriss and returning bench coach Chris Gutierrez, along with new hitting coach Dylan Nasiatka and pitching coaches Ryan Dennick — a former OKC pitcher — and David Anderson.
Single-game tickets for 2025 Comets home games are available now, as well as group and season ticket packages. To purchase tickets, view the complete 2025 game and promotion schedule, or for additional information, please visit okccomets.com or call (405) 218-2182.
