On their first report card, give the Richmond Flying Squirrels an “A” — for attendance.
The Eastern League team was strong on the field (4-2) and even stronger at the box office.
The latest edition of the local pros drew 38,917 fans for the season-opening, six-game series with the visiting Altoona Curve. That included a complete sellout of 9,810 for the first game of the series at The Diamond on Tuesday, April 12.
The Squirrels will return home Tuesday, April 26, to begin a six-game series against the Bowie Baysox of Maryland.
