Vero Rays in Town

by bpoe13 on May 8, 2007 4:35 PM EDT

A few of the Young Guns will be in town this week and I just wanted to give you all a heads up. I am jammed up at work today and have meant to post this for a while but hopefully Patrick or someone else will add any additional info.

This is the only time the Vero Beach Rays (High A) will be here in Clearwater all year.

It looks like we are going to miss Jake McGee as he is scheduled to pitch tonight.

The projected starters look like,

Wednesday....Wade Davis
Thursday.....Wlodarczyk
Friday ..... Not sure as Matt Walker pitched in a double header on the 7th
Sat....Either Walker or Paul Moviel.

PS.. the Wednesday game is a day game.

Now the games are all at brighthouse field which is located at US 19 and Drew Street. It is an incredible field and great place to catch a game.

I highly recommend the shortie burgers, a philly cheese steak from laspadas and the beer around the world both. Tickets are cheap and you should easily be able to buy the $3 or so ticket and sit anywhere you want.

Thursday is Thirsty thursday with 1/2 price beers and the Wade Davis day game has $10 club level seats which include some type of lunch.

For more info on the park check out,

Hope some of the info helps as im rushing to get out of work and forgot to post this a few days ago.

I will be sneaking out for a long lunch on Wednesday to catch a peak at the no hit kid and will be getting loaded in the Frenchys Tiki Pavilion in LF for the 3 night games.

I was planning on seeing the Beach Boys when they came to Leaches Field in Tampa... but, why the hey not! Go Rays!

Yankees make Tampa Bay a MINOR LEAGUE town, Devil Rays make Tampa Bay a MAJOR LEAGUE town!
