The name of Fredericksburg’s new Minor League Baseball team will be unveiled Oct. 5.
The owners of the team now known as the Potomac Nationals will announce the name at a free event scheduled to start at 10 a.m. outside the team’s new office and store at 601 Caroline St. (Executive Plaza). Wolfe Street will be closed for the event between Caroline Street and the garage. The official name-announcement ceremony will begin promptly at 11 a.m.
Fans in attendance will get a first look at team logos and merchandise, which will be available for purchase immediately following the event and inside the team store. The new stadium is expected to open in April just north of the Fredericksburg Expo Center.
