The midday winner wins $250, the evening wins $500, and the night winner will get an AR-15 with an AGM Rattler V2 Thermal Scope. Tickets can be purchased from any baseball parent or coach. Season tickets which will get you into every regular season game are also on sale for $100. Contact Boatright or Davis to purchase.’
