The smattering of rain over the "Shark Tank" today actually has had a positive affect on the field at Buck Hardee, meaning barring any drastic change in the weather, the game will start as scheduled at 7 p.m.

We have a tarp if it starts to rain too much, and always look to get the game underway at time here with the Wilmington Sharks.

It’s another "Thirsty Thursday" presented by Front Street Brewery, and also a Summertime St. Patties Day. Enjoy green beer for a dollar, dollar sodas and some great Sharks baseball. The gates open at 6 p.m. and first pitch is set for 7 p.m.
