Rox To Wrap Up Homestand With Three Weekend Games

The St. Cloud Rox will wrap up a six-game homestand this weekend before getting some time off for the All Star break.

The Rox, winners of five straight games and currently in first place in the Great Plains West Division, will host the Bismarck Larks for a 7:05 first pitch Friday night. The Rox beat the Larks 6-0 Thursday night to open the two-game series.

Friday's game will feature postgame fireworks.

On Saturday, the Rox will host the Minot Hot Tots for a 6:05 first pitch. The first 250 adults 21 and older will receive a Rox pint glass.

On Sunday, the Rox wrap up their series with the Hot Tots. First pitch is set for 4:05 p.m. at Joe Faber Field. Every Sunday is Kid's Day at the ballpark, which gives kids the opportunity to run the bases and collect autographs after the game.

In addition, the Rox will be wearing unique, Minnesota Twins-themed #7 jerseys in honor of Joe Mauer, who will be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York on Sunday afternoon.

The Rox will then take a few days off for the All Star break, with the game set to take place in Mankato. Following the break the Rox will return home for another four-game homestand that begins on Thursday.

The Rox can be heard all season long on AM 1390 and FM 93.9 Granite City Sports.
