NORTH AUGUSTA, SC: Consistently heavy rainfall has forced the cancellation of Sunday’s series finale at SRP Park between the Augusta GreenJackets and Hickory Crawdads.
The game will not be made up, as the two sides do not play again in the first half of the season.
With today’s cancellation, the Crawdads win their lone series at SRP Park this year three games to two, and lead the season series six to five.
Augusta and Hickory will meet for one final week in late July, at LP Frans Stadium in Hickory.
Augusta will next be in action Tuesday evening, as they kick off a six-game series against the first place Columbia Fireflies at Segra Park in the state capitol.
The GreenJackets took two out of three against the Fireflies on Opening Weekend at home, and sit three games out of first place in the Southern Division.
Hickory will head back home as today marks the conclusion of their 12-game road trip. The Crawdads will host the Kannapolis Cannon Ballers in a duel of two teams fighting to chase down Columbia in the South.
The GreenJackets will return to SRP Park Tuesday, May 20th, for a six-game set with the Charleston RiverDogs of the Tampa Bay Rays organization.
The excitement-filled week includes First Responders Night, Pavos Salvajes Night, and Harry Potter Night, the latter two of which feature new on-field looks for the ‘Jackets.
