Bengals to open at Nobby's Ballpark in 2014

The Bengals will open the 2014 schedule with a home game vs Bay Village.  The game is scheduled for March 31 at 4:30pm.  North Coast League action begins with a road game on April 7th at Padua Franciscan.  The complete 2014 schedule will be complete in the very near future.

The last meeting with Bay Village was in 2012.  The players, coaches, parents and fans attending that match-up are still trying to warm-up.  The game played at Bay Village in late March started out on a sunny afternoon.  However, it ended in a tie on a cold snowy night !  The game lasted nearly 3 1/2 hours.  The sun turned into clouds, the wind off the lake picked up which caused the temperatures to drop.  The game went back and forth as it started to rain, then sleet and then finally snow ! With the score tied, snow falling, darkness took over and the umpires called the game.  The game was suspended and never completed.

Fun Fact:  The game was suspended in the top of the 10th inning.  The Bengals had runners on 1st & 2nd w/no outs !!
