Modern Woodmen Named Best Ballpark, River Bandits Offer Free Tickets

Quad Cities River Bandits

The Quad Cities River Bandits finished the first half of the season with the best record in the Midwest League- and now, there's more good news. Today, the team announced Modern Woodmen Park in Davenport has been voted "Best of the Ballparks," in Class-A Baseball.  
Spokesman Marco LaNave says the ballpark in Davenport received the most votes from fans and readers of Ballpark Digest. 
The award followed the River Bandit's best half-season in over 28 years. And, the team won 12 games in a row, which is the longest winning-streak since 1979. 

LaNave says three River Bandits will play at tomorrow's Midwest League All-Star Game in Peoria. And, the Bandits secured a spot in the play-offs in September.
To celebrate, the River Bandits will give away free tickets for their home game on Monday, June 29th. Fans can pick up two free tickets per person, at Modern Woodmen Park on Wednesday from 9 am to 5 pm.
