The Harrisburg Senators (Class AA; Eastern League) are hitting a major milestone this weekend: unless the Market Street bridge to City Island collapses, the team will welcome the six-millionth fan in team history at some point during a weekend series against the Erie SeaWolves.
It should be a festive time, especially with the Senators in the midst of a playoff drive. The Senators are approximately 9,500 fans away from drawing number 6,000,000 to Metro Bank Park; the team expects that to happen for Saturday’s game. The lucky fan will win a prize pack from the Senators, which includes a team-autographed hat among other fun items.
