The South Bend Cubs open the season at home on Thursday, April 9, when they host the Bowling Green Hot Rods for a three-game series at Four Winds Field. A total of 70 home games will be played during the 140-game season. Highlights include games on Memorial Day (May 25) and Father's Day (June 21) and a special Independence Day Celebration (July 2-3). The home schedule concludes on Friday, Sept. 4.

"With all the changes happening this offseason and the new affiliation, we are very excited for the 2015 season," said Team President Joe Hart. " This past season was an amazing one, with the franchise even setting a new single-season attendance record. With the new Chicago Cubs affiliation, there is a renewed excitement surrounding the team, and we are setting our sights on another single-season attendance record for 2015. We are very much looking forward to April 9, it just can't get here soon enough."

Post-game fireworks return for 17 games, including the return of Friday Night Fireworks. Other popular promotions returning are Thirsty Thursdays and Flat Screen Saturdays, when the South Bend Cubs will giveaway a 39-inch flat-screen TV every inning.

"While the offseason has truly just begun, we are hard at work in developing some new and exciting promotions for the upcoming season," Hart said. "We strive to come up with new and exciting things for our fans and this upcoming season will be no different."

The South Bend Cubs will release their complete 2015 promotional schedule at a later time.
