TOURISTS RECEIVE TAGO, THREE OTHER PITCHERS MOVED

Lindsay Righthanded pitcher Peter Tago has been assigned officially to the Asheville Tourists' 25-man roster and will make his professional debut tonight in a start against the Lexington Legends at McCormick Field, beginning at 7:05 p.m.

The Tourists also announced that left-handed pitcher Craig Bennigson and right-handed hurler Ricardo Ferrer have been sent to extended spring training in Arizona and will likely join Casper when the Pioneer League begins in mid-June. Right-handed pitcher Erik Stavert, meanwhile, has been moved to the inactive list with the Tourists.

The Tourists open a four-game series against Lexington on Friday night at McCormick Field. For more information about tickets, the clinic or the luncheon, contact the Tourists' front office at (828) 258-0428.
