CLEARWATER, Fla. – The game between the Clearwater Threshers and the Jupiter Hammerheads on Friday, July 8 at Bright House Field has been postponed due to inclement weather. The contest will be rescheduled for Saturday, July 9 as part of a doubleheader starting at 5 p.m. Gates will open at 4:30 p.m.

 The Black Honkeys concert that was originally scheduled has been moved to Thursday, July 28 when the Bradenton Marauders are in town. Game time is currently set for 7 p.m. but is subject to change.

 All fans that purchased tickets can exchange them for another game of his or her choice, based on availability. If you had a group event scheduled for Friday night, please contact your sales representative for rescheduling options.

 The Hammerheads are making their first trip to Clearwater this season as the two teams split the only other meeting in Jupiter back in May. This will be the second consecutive game that the Threshers are rained out of as Thursday’s game at Brevard County was called before first pitch. That game has been rescheduled for August 30 when the team makes its last visit to Space Coast Stadium.
