222 Showcase Date Announced – April 3rd

From the R-Phils website

(Reading, PA)—As part of the previously announced Baseballtown re-branding, FirstEnergy Stadium will be home to the 5th Annual Baseballtown 222 Showcase on Tuesday, April 3 at 6:05 p.m. The exhibition game, which pits the Double-A Reading Phillies against the Triple-A Lehigh Valley IronPigs, is once again presented by Capital BlueCross.

“Capital BlueCross is proud to be a major partner of the Reading Phillies and the Lehigh Valley IronPigs – two professional organizations who contribute greatly to our communities,” said Colleen Mooney McGee, Manager of Community Relations. “Capital BlueCross is honored to be the presenting sponsor of the 5th Annual 222 Showcase. This is a prime opportunity for the great fans of our region to celebrate the top Philadelphia Phillies prospects as they engage in friendly competition at America’s Classic Ballpark. Most importantly, our sponsorship of the event helps Baseballtown Charities raise important funds to allow more inner-city kids to play baseball, keep active, and lead healthy lives.”

Tickets for the exhibition game go on sale starting today via http://www.readingphillies.com, over the phone at 610-370-BALL, and at the R-Phils Ticket Office located at FirstEnergy Stadium. General admission tickets located in the red and green seating areas cost $5 and reserved seats in the Yellow Box and Blue Box seating areas cost $7, with all proceeds benefitting Baseballtown Charities.

Let’s get out there and support the Pigs and Baseballtown Charities. The Dish is looking forward to reporting on its first Showcase!

Go Pigs!

  1. I had to call to order four tickets, as they didn’t have the web site ready yet earlier today. So I plan to go, pending weather, kids’ activities, work, etc.

  2. Roger that Kram – I didn’t see a place to order tickets online either. I’ll check again tomorrow and then call if it’s not up yet.

    Hope to see you there!

    This is always a fun event and now the newly renovated First Energy Stadium gets to host it. With my new schedule I’m not sure if I can make it, but we’ll see, I’ve gone to every one since it’s inception. It’s ususally alot of fun!!
