A World Series that is Farm Grown in Fresno

FRESNO, CA, October 19, 2019 - The Fresno Grizzlies are inviting the Central Valley to join them at Chukchansi Park for an Open House to cheer on their parent team, the Washington Nationals, who swept the St. Louis Cardinals and won the National League Championship Series. 
The Nationals will play the American League Champion Houston Astros, who were the parent team of Fresno from 2015-2018. During that time, the Astros won the 2017 World Series. Prior to the Astros moving to the Central Valley, the San Francisco Giants were the parent team of the Grizzlies from 1998-2014. During that time, the Giants were World Series Champions in 2010, 2012 and 2014. The Grizzlies are proud to have earned their own title, winning the Triple-A National Championship in 2015.
"What many people are calling the 'Fresno Magic' has definitely proven to be real," said Derek Franks, Fresno Grizzlies President. "Counting the Nationals, in the last 10 years, five World Series matchups have included the Grizzlies parent team. In four of those, the Grizzlies' parent team has been crowned World Champions. The Nationals could bring a fifth World Series ring to Fresno."

Open House Details

Chukchansi Park, and its left-field Fresno Social area, will be open, with free admission, on Tuesday, Oct. 22; Wednesday, Oct. 23 and Friday, Oct. 25.
