0

PASCO, Wash. – The Dust Devils, the Tri-Cities’ High-A baseball team, have an exciting lineup of events and updates for fans this summer.

Derrel Ebert, the president of the Dust Devils, shared that the biggest fireworks show of the year is scheduled for Thursday, July 3.

He emphasized the excitement and energy expected that night, noting it will be a sold-out event.

“It’s going to be a lot of fun, a lot of energy in here, so really excited about that night,” Ebert said.

Fans are encouraged to secure tickets soon, which should only be purchased on the Dust Devils’ website.

Next on the agenda is the Viñeros and Rooster Tails games, which will showcase the team’s alternate identities.

Ebert explained that these events, occurring on July 10 and 11, offer a fun twist on Dust Devils baseball. “Same players, same fun, just with some other identities that we’re going to be showcasing those nights,” he said.

Additionally, the Angels, the Dust Devils’ parent team, have multiple second picks in the upcoming draft.

This is significant for the Dust Devils, as it could bring promising talent their way.

“If we see that second overall pick this year or next year, that would be amazing,” Ebert stated.

The Angels have over $16 million in draft money available, providing them with strategic opportunities.

“They may not go big in the first pick and spread that out, which would be really beneficial for us here in our cities,” he added.
