I am super excited to share baseball news from the Peninsula Pilots, a Coastal Plain League summer baseball team based in Hampton, VA. The Pilots play at historic War Memorial Stadium in Hampton, which is a short drive for me every summer from my new home in Virginia Beach. The Pilots are gearing up for a ton of spectacular nights on the field and some exciting promotions in the stands for fans. Their official home schedule is posted on their website – www.peninsulapilots.com. And here is a condensed version, courtesy of the Peninsula Pilots Instagram page:
The Peninsula Pilots play at War Memorial Stadium, 1889 W Pembroke Ave., Hampton, VA. From my experience going to Pilots games over the past several years, most games are played at night, around 7pm, with gates opening around 5 to 6pm depending on promotions. If you are planning on going to a Pilots game, I strongly suggest purchasing a ticket in advance. And getting to War Memorial as early as you and your family can. Parking is decent, but the lot does fill up on busy game nights. There is street parking on W Pembroke Avenue, as that is typically where I find parking on busy game nights.
The Peninsula Pilots, as well as the entire Coastal Plain League of teams, attracts some of the best local VA and national baseball talent every summer to our area. The Pilots fanbase is loyal and loud and very enthusiastic. It is an incredible way to spend a summer evening here in the Hampton Roads baseball community.
