Snappers First Workout Open to Public
Midwest League
The Beloit Snappers first official team workout will be open to the public on Wednesday, April 2nd at 6:00pm. Fans are welcome to watch this workout for FREE and have a chance to check out this year's Snapper squad.
Beloit's new manager Nelson Prada will lead the charge for the Snappers during the open workout after spending the last three seasons as the manager for the Gulf Coast League Twins. Last season, Prada led the GCL Twins to a 37-19 record, good enough for first place in their division.
Nelson will be joined on the 2nd by the other two members of his '08 coaching staff, pitching coach Gary Lucas and hitting coach Rudy Hernandez. All 25 players on the Snappers roster (still undetermined) will also be on hand to workout on April 2nd right here at beautiful Pohlman Field.
Make sure you stop by Pohlman Field located at 2301 Skyline Drive in Beloit on April 2nd to catch a glimpse of your defending Midwest League Western Division Champions.
One day before the open workout the Snappers will be hosting their annual "Meet the Snappers Night" on Tuesday, April 1st. The annual team meet and greet will take place once again at Central Christian Church located at 2460 Milwaukee Road in Beloit.

Central Christian Church will be serving a menu of ballpark food. Fans will have the opportunity to meet the 2008 Snappers and also purchase new team apparel. Players, coaches and front office staff will be on hand to sign autographs and answer questions, and the Snappers beloved mascot Snappy will also be in attendance.
