Bobbleheads, other promotions are set

Single-game tickets for the Orioles’ 2017 season go on sale Tuesday at 10 a.m., and the team Thursday announced its fan promotions to go along with it.

All fans at the game Aug. 19 against the Los Angeles Angels will receive a replica of Camden Yards as part of the ongoing celebration of the ballpark’s 25th anniversary, with more celebrations to be announced at a later date.

Postgame fireworks will be held May19, June 16, July 21, Aug. 18 and Sept. 22, with T-shirt giveaways for all fans May 8, May 29, June 21, Aug. 1 and Sept. 4.

Other notable giveaways include an Orioles welcome mat April 22 for the first 20,000 fans ages 15 and older, a Maryland flag script jersey matching the one worn on the field May 20, a gray-scale cap for all fans ages 15 and older June 16, a set of four bottle-stoppers featuring the infield of Chris Davis, Schoop, J.J.

Additionally, kids can run the bases after every Sunday home game, part of several initiatives geared toward young fans.
