SWB SCHEDULE UPDATE: Doubleheader set for August 26

MOOSIC, PA (August 25, 2023) – The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders and Lehigh Valley IronPigs are set to play a single-admission doubleheader at PNC Field on Saturday, August 26, beginning at 3:35 P.M.

The RailRiders and IronPigs continue their series this evening at 6:35. The series began on Tuesday night and the clubs played a doubleheader on Wednesday to make up for a previous postponement. Thursday’s game was postponed due to wet grounds and will be made up on Saturday. Tickets for Thursday’s game can be exchanged for any remaining home game during the 2023 season.

Gates will open at 3 P.M. on Saturday with a fuzzy SWB bucket hat giveaway for the first 2,000 fans as part of the previously scheduled 90s Night festivities. First pitch in game one of the doubleheader is slated for 3:35 with two seven-inning games to be played.

In game two, the RailRiders will wear custom, 1990s-inspired jerseys, which will be auctioned off to benefit the American Red Cross. Tag Team, the legendary recording artists behind the classic “Whoomp! (There It Is),” will be on hand for autographs and photos. After the final out of the day, post game fireworks will light the sky and a 90s Dance Party, featuring Tag Team and DJ Hersh, will take you all the way back.

Tonight marks the second-to-last First Responder Friday of the season at PNC Field with post game fireworks. Gates open at 5:30. For more information on this series or to purchase tickets, visit www.swbrailriders.com.
