"We (Riverhawks) are so honoured our Indigenous friends will lead off the show with amazing songs, dances and a cool “Indian Relay” race! We’ll also hit the bases postgame for a Round Dance for Reconciliation on the field.

Did we say it’s a Friday?! You know what that means. We’ll have an unbelievable light show presented by Uncle John's Fireworks to end the night with a splash!

The Edmonton Riverhawks open up the home portion of their schedule tonight. The Riverhawks are very good about making their home games more than just baseball. That's why this article started with words right from their websites promotions page. "We like to party" as their Twitter/X profile page states.

First pitch at 7:05pm. Gates open at 6pm. The Nanaimo NightOwls are the visitors. While you are at the ballpark you can stream the audio through edmontonsportstalk.com.

There's no crying in baseball

Special Schedule Reminder

"Take me out to the ball game.
Take me out with the crowd.
Buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks.
I don’t care if I never get back.
Let me root, root, root for the home team.
If they don’t win it’s a shame.
For it’s one, two, three strikes, you’re out.
At the old ball game!"
