Goldeyes, rain eliminate RiverHawks

September 2, 2010 - LOVES PARK, Ill. – The Winnipeg Goldeyes took the Rockford RiverHawks to the brink of elimination from postseason contention. Weather pushed them over the edge.

The Goldeyes blew out the RiverHawks, 15-2, in the opener of a scheduled doubleheader on Rockford’s final home date. The nightcap was cancelled because of a heavy thunderstorm.

The cancellation mathematically eliminated the RiverHawks from contention for a Northern League playoff spot. Gary clinched one of the two remaining spots with the Rockford loss. The rainout at Road Ranger Stadium gave Joliet the last of the four postseason spots by default. The cancellation also guarantees a second straight losing season for the RiverHawks. Rockford had not finished below the .500 mark in any of its first seven years in the Stateline.

Brett Wallace, Justin Justice and Juan Diaz hit home runs for Winnipeg. Victor Diaz homered for the RiverHawks.

Ticket Redemption Night moved to Thursday

LOVES PARK, Ill. – This offer is so good, Mother Nature tried to stop it.

Because of Wednesday’s postponement, the Rockford RiverHawks have rescheduled Ticket Redemption Night for Thursday’s 5:05 p.m. doubleheader against Winnipeg. Any fan with any 2010 RiverHawks ticket that went unused for any reason can exchange it for admission to Thursday’s games.

Whether a fan missed a game because of a schedule conflict, because of a threat of rain or a haywire GPS device, their ticket still has value. Fans can bring in unused tickets from any other 2010 home game – whether they’re season tickets or individual-game tickets – and trade them in for tickets to Wednesday’s game, no questions asked.

“Our ‘No Ticket Goes Unused’ policy has a benefit to our season-ticket holders for many years,” RiverHawks general manager Josh Olerud said. “This is the first time we’ve offered the same opportunity to fans who just buy individual tickets. It’s a one-of-a-kind opportunity to get maximum value out of unused tickets.”

Unused tickets must be exchanged in person at the Road Ranger Stadium box office. The box office is open at 9 a.m.
