On this beautiful May 25th, the 35th anniversary of the release of the first Star Wars film, I am excited to announce details for our favorite event of the year!

Join the 501st Old Line Garrison, Rebel Legion’s Terrapin Base, The Defenders of the Force and many more at this year’s STAR WARS NIGHT on Saturday, June 23rd at 5:00pm!

The Baysox will take on the Reading Phillies at 6:35pm for an awesome Saturday evening of MiLB Baseball at Prince George’s Stadium in Bowie, MD! Tickets are fantastically cheap and plentiful, but will sell quickly!

The gates will open at 5:00pm for you and the family to tour the concourse and concession areas and meet your favorite Star Wars characters from the Rebel Alliance, Galactic Empire and the Republic. We will also have a charity SHOOT THE TROOPER game for you to play where you can use a Nerf gun to battle real-life Stormtroopers and Imperial personnel!

The Defenders of the Force will be back again this year with more action-packed lightsaber duels between innings and a climactic night-time battle between the Jedi and Sith!

The night will end with a fireworks show after the game, set to the dramatic score of the Star Wars films!

For more information and to purchase tickets, please go to the Bowie Baysox Homepage.

See you there, and LONG LIVE THE EMPIRE!
