Promotions planned for HokieBall action this weekend at English Field

The 18th-ranked Virginia Tech Baseball team returns home to English Field this weekend as they host the Boston College Eagles Friday at 5:30pm, Saturday at 2pm and Sunday at 1pm. Over the past four weekends, Tech has posted a 7-5 record against Top 10 ranked ACC competition, including three series victories at #3 Georgia Tech this past weekend, at #4 Florida State, home against #9 Miami and took one game at top-ranked Virginia.

Several promotions are planned for fans in attendance this weekend. On Saturday, the first 400 fans will receive a pair of VT Flip Flops. Coupons will be given out beginning at 1pm at the marketing table to be redeemed at the top of the 5th inning for the flip flops. Saturday is also Faculty/Staff Appreciation Day as VT Faculty/Staff can show their ID at the concession stand to purchase $1 hot dogs throughout the game. Following the game, all kids are invited on the field to take a lap around the bases.

On Sunday, fans will have opportunity to play Baseball Bingo for a chance to win Tech baseball gear. There will also be a post-game autograph session with select members of the team. At all three games, fans are encouraged to stop by the marketing table to pick-up a Lucky Number and sign-up to participate in the many promotions planned throughout the game including Tech Trivia, Awful Arthur’s Guess the Stretch and much more!

Also don’t miss Rita’s Italian Ice who will be vending at English Field all weekend long. Be sure to try a refreshing treat while at the ballpark.

Admission is free for all home games. Free parking is also available in the Cage Lot located across the street from English Field.
