Concessions windows and select kiosks will be open at 4pm, with all additional concession stands opening by 5:30pm.
"From the renovated concourse to new additions such as cornhole and inflatables, there is a lot for fans to enjoy at Calfee Park, and we look forward to opening gates earlier to give our fans more time to enjoy a summer afternoon/evening at the ballpark," Haugh said.
