MOOSIC, PA (February 27, 2020) - With single-game tickets going on sale tomorrow at 10 AM, the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders have announced their giveaway schedule for the upcoming 2020 season. All major giveaways fall on Saturdays this season, with select dates featuring special, limited quantity giveaways.

"Every season is special," said Katie Beekman, the General Manager of the RailRiders, "and our giveaway plans are always a major part of that. Our giveaways are designed to be fun or something you can use and certainly are meant to help represent the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders in the area or across the country."
The 2020 season begins on April 9 against the Buffalo Bisons at PNC Field. Gates open at 6 PM with a fleece headband giveaway presented by the Times-Shamrock. Over opening weekend, fans will receive a magnetic schedule, courtesy of Highmark, while supplies last. 
Celebrate the start of the I-81 Series in late April when the RailRiders host the Syracuse Mets from April 24-26. On Saturday, April 25, be among the first fans to strut through the gates and get a pair of I-81 Series socks, perfect for broadway leg kicks or a night on the town after the series that never sleeps.
Join us at PNC Field on May 9 for a custom RailRiders growler giveaway. On May 23, MetLife presents a digital camo hat giveaway and FOX 56 helps keep you covered with an umbrella giveaway on May 30. May 31 is our first of four kids-only giveaways in 2020. The first 500 children will receive a RailRiders autograph book presented by Hyundai; the perfect idea for a summer full of stars and signatures. 
June 10 is a Waggin' Wednesday and the first 300 dogs through the gates (well... their owners) will receive a RailRiders dog bowl. Additional Waggin' Wednesday giveaways are scheduled for July 8 (waste bag dispenser) and August 19 (a dog collar tag).
June 13 is Youth Baseball and Softball Night at PNC Field and the first 2,500 fans get a RailRiders insulated lunch bag.
