The Rochester Red Wings announced their intention Thursday to field a 142-game schedule with the home opener scheduled for April 13 - 589 days after their last game at Frontier Field.
Naomi Silver, president and COO of Rochester Community Baseball, said the decision was made by Major League Baseball in concert with other teams in the International League. She’s anxious to get the team back on the field.
“It's very exciting we haven’t had this much optimism for some time, so this is great news,” said Silver.
After nearly 600 days, baseball will return to Frontier Field this spring. And as WXXI’s James Brown learned, fans may be back too..
