SPRINGDALE, Ark - The Northwest Arkansas Naturals are excited to announce the release of the entire 2019 Texas League schedule and subsequent home games to coincide with ticket packages going on sale to the general public.
 
For the first time in franchise history, Northwest Arkansas will begin the 2019 regular season by taking on a couple of teams from the Texas League North Division. The Naturals will begin by celebrating Opening Day at Arvest Ballpark on Thursday, April 4, 2019 by welcoming the Springfield Cardinals (Double-A St. Louis Cardinals) for a four (4) game series through Sunday, April 7 before turning their attention to their in-state rivals, the Arkansas Travelers (Double-A Seattle Mariners), for the final three (3) games of the opening seven (7) game homestand.

The 2019 campaign will feature home games at Arvest Ballpark on or around 11 weekends throughout the summer. The weekend games next year are spread out throughout the schedule as the Naturals will have two (2) weekend series in April, May, June and July and then a total of three (3) in August and over Labor Day weekend.
