On Friday, the Louisville Bats take the field for the first time this season! The Bats start the season with a five-game stand at home, first taking on the Toledo Mud Hens Friday-Sunday and then the Columbus Clippers Monday-Wednesday. Opening weekend at Slugger Field features a schedule jam-packed with food/drink specials, fun activities, and of course, baseball! (Oh, and teachers get free tickets to opening weekend games with a valid teacher's ID.)
