JOLIET, Ill. — The opener of a three-game series between the Schaumburg Boomers and the Joliet Slammers scheduled for Tuesday night in Joliet was rained out due to the remnants of Hurricane Beryl. The teams will make-up the game on Thursday, July 11, with a pair of seven-inning contests beginning at 5:30pm.

The third series of the year between the two Chicagoland foes will now begin on Wednesday morning with a 10:05 am scheduled game.

The Boomers (28-23) return home on July 12 for a three-game set at Wintrust Field before the All-Star break. Plenty of fun is slated for the night as it is Star Wars Night featuring postgame fireworks and a special drone show. The team will wear special jerseys that be auctioned to benefit Donate Life Illinois. Tickets for the remaining contests this season are now on sale!
