Two Giveaways and In-Your-Face Fireworks on Tap This Week in Funnville
The Richmond Flying Squirrels return to The Diamond for a three-game home series from Tuesday through Thursday. The homestand includes a pair of giveaways recognizing the 10 memorable past players series and closes out with In-Your-Face Fireworks.

The homestand begins on Tuesday night with the Joe Panik “Panik Button” T-shirt Giveaway presented by Qualified Staffing, part of the 10 memorable past players series in the Flying Squirrels’ 10th Season celebration. The first 1,500 fans 15 & older will receive a “Click the Panik Button” T-shirt, honoring the San Francisco Giants’ All-Star second baseman, who played for the Flying Squirrels in 2013.
On Wednesday, the first 1,500 fans 21 & older will receive a Matt Duffy “Duffman” Tank Top presented by Bud Light, continuing the 10 memorable past players series, recognizing the infielder who rose from the Flying Squirrels to the Giants during the 2014 season. The giveaway was rescheduled to Wednesday following a rainout on July 23.
The series concludes on Thursday night with In-Your-Face Fireworks presented by Puritan Cleaners. It will also be Faith Night, with live music and pregame player testimonials.
