\nKids interested in “running the ballpark” can go to http:\/\/www.oroyals.com\/kids_ballpark.html<\/a> to submit their application. The Royals will draw names to select 15 kids. Another 15 kids will be selected at 3 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 2, from those who register at the ballpark on that day.

\nUNMC community relations specialist Megan Addy said that tickets will be available today (July 16) from 11:30 to 12:30 a.m. outside of the Nebraska Cafe. Interested employees who are unable to buy tickets at that time should contact Addy at 559-4694 or maddy@unmc.edu<\/a> by July 18. Payment is due on that date, and checks should be made payable to the Omaha Royals. <\/p>\n

Addy said that all four university campuses will participate in activities throughout the night, and kids will perform various ballpark tasks, such as ticket-taking, serving concessions and doing public address announcing. <\/p>\n

First pitch for the Omaha Royals vs. Salt Lake Stingers game on Aug. 2 will be at 6:05 p.m. Stadium gates will open at 3 p.m.<\/p>\n

In addition to various activities, campus mascots will be on hand to entertain the youngsters. UNMC’s mascot will feature a “Lil’ Red” with a lab coat and goggles. Others will include Louie the Loper (UNK); Durango (UNO); and Lil’ Red (UNL).<\/p>\nYr qGPAxtaIe cI<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
