The 2024 Rochester Red Wings home opener has been postponed for a third time due to inclement weather on Thursday.
The team was set to take on the Lehigh Valley IronPigs at Innovative Field on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday; however, all three games will now have to be made up on future dates. Thursday's game has been scheduled to be made up on April 7. The other two have yet to be scheduled.
This is the second time since 2005 that the Red Wings' first three home openers have been postponed. The last time this happened was in 2018.
Fans can exchange their tickets from Tuesday's, Wednesday's and Thursday's games for any future home game during the 2024 regular season. Ticket exchanges must be in person at the Innovative Field Ticket Office.
Friday's game will become the home opener if the weather holds up. Left-handed pitcher Mitchell Parker will take the mound against the IronPigs at 6:05 p.m. Gates open at 5 p.m.
Wednesday's winter mittens and magnet schedule giveaway has been rescheduled for Friday. The eclipse glasses giveaway has been rescheduled for Saturday.
The Red Wings and IronPigs will change their monikers on Friday, Saturday and Sunday to the Rochester Moon Rocs and the Lehigh Valley Space Pigs, respectively, in celebration of the eclipse. Special food and drink options will be available throughout the concourse, preparing fans for "Solarpalooza" on Monday.
