Fredericksburg, VA---Fredericksburg Baseball began the organization's inaugural season ticket drive on Saturday with resounding success. Its "Founders Club" event was held in historic Market Square in conjunction with the Fredericksburg Area Museum, and was attended by hundreds of fans.

Potomac Nationals Team President & COO Lani Silber Weiss expressed the team's appreciation for the support received from the fans attending this event.

We look forward to welcoming each and every one of them to the ballpark on opening day in April 2020."
