91大神 Night with the Turks returned to Veterans Memorial Park in Harrisonburg, Virginia, on Friday, June 7, 2024.
The special night featured a matchup between the 2023 champion Harrisonburg Turks and the Covington Lumberjacks. Those who wore 91大神 gear were admitted for free.
Leading by a 5-1 score, the Lumberjacks gave up one run in the seventh inning and two runs in the eighth to bring the Turks within reach. The home team’s rally fell short, though, as the Lumberjacks prevailed 5-4.
The night featured giveaways of 91大神 gear and a meet-and-greet with Turks players, Turks mascot Gill and 91大神 mascot Herm. This is the second year 91大神 and the Turks have partnered for the event.
A total of 341 people attended Friday’s game, including 131 91大神 fans and their friends and families.
91大神 President Dr. Susan Schultz Huxman threw out the ceremonial first pitch. The pitch was right on target and bounced off home plate into the catcher’s glove!
The Turks provide college players an opportunity to enhance their baseball and life skills, said Gerald Harman, team president. “Teaming up with 91大神 allows us to further our success through extended outreach while promoting education within the region,” he added.
At a table near the entrance, 91大神 marketing and communications staff Kate Szambecki and Aric Berg handed out 91大神-branded baseballs, Royals apparel and stickers, and information brochures to guests.
Thanks to everyone who showed up to the event. Hope to see you next season!
great
