Royals, Storm Chasers to Play 2019 Exhibition Game

2015 Triple-A All-Star Game, Omaha

The Kansas City Royals will travel to Werner Park on March 25, 2019, when they visit the Omaha Storm Chasers (Class AAA; Pacific Coast League) for an exhibition game. First pitch is scheduled for 6:05 p.m. CT.

“We are very excited to welcome the Kansas City Royals to Omaha in 2019,” said Storm Chasers President and General Manager Martie Cordaro. “We are very appreciative of Dayton Moore and the entire Royals organization in working with us in committing to making this game happen for our fans.”

”The Omaha community, Storm Chasers front office and their ownership has had an amazing and impactful influence on the success of the Kansas City Royals,” said Dayton Moore, Royals Senior Vice President of Baseball Operations and General Manager.  “As soon as the decision was made to postpone the exhibition earlier this year my first priority was to make good on returning to Omaha for our fans in that area. We are proud of the association we have and thrilled to play at Werner Park next spring.”

“As an organization that prides itself on its strong relationships with its minor league affiliates we are proud to bring a Major League exhibition game to Omaha.  Obviously we attempted to do this in 2018 but were unable to do so because of inclement weather, hopefully Mother Nature will be a little kinder to us in 2019” added Kansas City Royals VP/ Assistant General Manager of Baseball Operations Scott Sharp.

The game will mark the first time the Kansas City Royals have played a contest at Werner Park. It will also be the first time the organization has participated in a game in the Omaha Metro since 2000.
