⚾⚾⚾ Three Decades Strong: It's Kannapolis Baseball's 30th Anniversary | |
The 30th Anniversary Season Has Officially Kicked Off! | |
|
In an exciting announcement last month, the Cannon Ballers revealed plans for a season-long celebration marking 30 years of professional baseball in Kannapolis.
Since its inception, Kannapolis has woven its rich baseball history into the fabric of the community, beginning with the Piedmont Phillies in 1995, followed by the Piedmont Boll Weevils (1996-2000), the Kannapolis Intimidators (2001-2019), and now the Kannapolis Cannon Ballers (2020-present).
As part of the commemoration, the Cannon Ballers have introduced a special 30th Anniversary logo, featuring a prominent "30" across the crest.
- Fans can anticipate seeing this unique logo on various giveaway items throughout the season, including the popular Hawaiian Shirt Night on Sunday, August 18th, the Commemorative Pint Glass Night on Thursday, August 1st, and multi-pack Anniversary Team Card Sets distributed on select nights.
