Rafters Baseball Returns to Witter Field
The Rafters 14th season is around the corner.
Wisconsin Rapids, WI— It is about that time again! Opening day is 4 days away and Rafters baseball is on the horizon. It is the 14th season of the Wisconsin Rapids Rafters and they are looking to make it a memorable season just like they did last year. With players from California to South Carolina and manager Kirk Shrider back at the helm, the Rafters have a fully loaded roster heading into the 2023 season.
There are many fun and exciting promotions lined up for the Rafters this season including a special one on opening day. The first 500 Rafter fans will receive a home magnet schedule sponsored by Sleep Inn! Make sure you are at Witter Field early, you don’t want to miss out on a special opportunity!
The Rafters were unsuccessful in their last opening day as they fell to the Green Bay Rockers. This year, they open up at Witter Field with a 2 game series vs the Lakeshore Chinooks.
