Springfield, Ohio – As Wittenberg University baseball prepares to host North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) rival Ohio Wesleyan in a four-game West Division series April 20-21, the Tigers are counting on some added support as they host Youth/Little League Baseball Day, starting at noon Sunday, April 21, at Carleton Davidson Stadium.

The Tigers and Battling Bishops are set to play a doubleheader that begins at 2 p.m. Throughout the afternoon, there will be drawings, giveaways, games and an autograph session with Wittenberg student-athletes.

All youth players who were their uniforms to the stadium will be admitted free of charge. Adult tickets cost $5 and youth tickets (for those not in uniform) cost $3.

Wittenberg heads into the week with records of 14-10 overall and 3-5 in the NCAC West. The series against Ohio Wesleyan is a key late-season clash between division rivals as the teams compete for positioning in the upcoming NCAC Tournament. Wittenberg will tune up for the divisional series with a non-conference contest at Otterbein at 4 p.m. Thursday, April 18.
