“New” Dust Devils Launch 2015 Home Campaign Tuesday
We say new, because for the first time since 2001, there will be a new parent club for the Tri-City Dust Devils.
The Dust Devils are now the Class A short-season farm club for the San Diego Padres. The Padres have sent the bulk of their draft picks to Tri-Cities, and unlike Colorado (with whom the Devils were with for so many years) the Padres don't have a Rookie League team.
We will get to see some of the best and brightest in their future at GESA Stadium. The Devils are coming off a successful road trip to Boise, and will open their home season in Pasco, complete with a fireworks show after the game.
First Pitch is 7:15, with pregame at 7pm on Newstalk 870. For tickets, (509)-544-8789 or online as well.
