PRESS RELEASE – The Aberdeen IronBirds, Class A short season affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, today announced its promotional schedule for the 2016 regular season. In addition to the 19 themed promotional nights, IronBirds fans attending games at Leidos Field at Ripken Stadium will have the opportunity to enjoy 14 post-game fireworks shows throughout the season.
“Our goal this season was to bring back some of the themes that our fans enjoyed in 2015 and combine that with unique and entertaining new promotional nights,” said IronBirds General Manager Joe Harrington. “Our fan base is a huge part of who we are, so it’s important for us to listen to their feedback and give them a fun atmosphere that encourages them to visit us as often as possible.”
The IronBirds will take flight to their 15th season as they host the Auburn Doubledays for a three-game series starting June 22, which will include Leidos Military Appreciation Night on June 23 and a fireworks show on June 24.
