Medford Baseball Opening Day on Saturday, April 22rd is almost here. We look forward to seeing everyone. It’s a great experience and a lot of fun for the kids. All players are announced onto the field and run through a “high five” line of older players.
We will also a have music, special awards, VFW Color Guard, National Anthem, ceremonial first pitch, food concessions and all of this is followed by lots of baseball. It’s going to be a great day.
Please see below for the general itinerary. Head coaches will have any other information you need.
