The game will serve as the final tune-up for the Aces before the much-anticipated April 8 Opening Day at Aces Ballpark, while Nevada’s student-athletes will have the opportunity to compete against some of professional baseball’s top prospects at the Triple-A level.

Through the partnership, a portion of the proceeds from the evening will be donated directly to the University of Nevada’s Dugout Club, which benefits the Wolf Pack baseball program.
