Minor League Baseball cancels season, Dust Devils won’t hit field this summer

PASCO, Wash.- Minor League Baseball has announced it is canceling the entire 2020 season across North America because of the Coronavirus pandemic, thus ending any hope the Tri-City Dust Devils would hit the field this summer.

“We are disappointed by the news passed down today from MLB and MiLB that the 2020 season has been cancelled, but completely understand and respect the decision,” said Derrel Ebert, Tri-City Dust Devils Vice President and General Manager. “The Dust Devils have always put a high priority on the health and safety of our fans, players, staff, and the Tri-Cities community. It is imperative that we all do our part to help contain the spread of COVID-19.”

The reigning Northwest League's Northern Division champions were originally scheduled to begin play June 17th.

Ticket package holders will be contacted in the coming days.
