The Toledo Mud Hens begin the 2021 season today at Fifth Third Field with limited seating and coronavirus procedures in place. Downtown bars and restaurants are anxious to have people back downtown and are taking steps to serve as many patrons as possible inside, outside under tents, and if the weather holds on the street.
Here's a quick note from the Mud Hens front office.
The Mud Hens could not be more excited to welcome you back to Fifth Third Field. We are ready for baseball and we know you are too! Things have changed since we were last together, new ways of doing things, and we know there will be some hiccups. Hang in there with us, be patient, share a laugh and know we'll make it right... it may just take a bit longer. You're part of our team and our commitment to you will never change-- to bring you an afternoon of fun that creates life-long memories.
