April 30, 2015

FRISCO, TEXAS (April 3o, 2015) - The Frisco RoughRiders, Double-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers, announced a promotion worthy of rock star status today as they unveiled "Paint the Park Pink Night" at Dr Pepper Ballpark in conjunction with Women Rock, Inc. The two organizations will rock out together on Saturday, May 16 when the RoughRiders battle the Corpus Christi Hooks at 7:05 p.m.

The event will mark the fourth time the RoughRiders have teamed up with the not-for-profit Breast Cancer awareness group. As always, "Paint the Park Pink Night" will amp up the game day experience at Dr Pepper Ballpark.

For just $25, fans receive a limited edition RoughRiders hat, a prime seat behind the Riders dugout and a souvenir PlayBall! game program. From 6 - 8 p.m., fans with an appetite can enjoy unlimited hot dogs, brats and nachos, and quench their thirst with unlimited Dr Pepper products.

Five dollars from every ticket purchased will be donated to Women Rock, Inc. In turn, Women Rock, Inc. will use a portion of the night's proceeds to fund medical costs for breast cancer warrior, A.J. Atherton. Ms. Atherton will throw out the ceremonial first pitch before the game.

The game will also feature a "Pink in the Park" jersey auction. The RoughRiders will wear custom pink jerseys that night and a portion of all proceeds from the silent auction will benefit Women Rock, Inc.
