2015 Home Plate Event

The Toledo Mud Hens Home Plate Event is set for August 9^th, 2015 with guest speaker Nate Robertson! Nate is a former Toledo Mud Hen and Detroit Tiger pitcher and has participated in both team's Home Plate Events during his time with the association. As we looked at Nate's leadership roles in chapel and also on the field, we are excited for your church to learn about his journey with faith.

Last year over 1,000 fans attended the event and we expect this year to be even larger! Group seating can be placed on hold at this time and finalized closer to the event. More details will be released shortly!
