Baseball is a game of superstitions: hitters don't wash helmets while on a streak, and managers don't brush their teeth for weeks after a great argument with an umpire. Discover your own diamond rituals with this GrouponLive deal to see a Fort Worth Cats baseball game at LaGrave Field. For $7, you get one ticket for reserved box seating at any regular-season home game (up to a $14 value). See the full schedule here.
Set to scratch through to a new era as part of the North American Baseball League, the Cats slug and pitch their way into the 2012 season when it opens with an eight-game home stand on May 23. The perennial playoff-contending ball club joins the Southern Division of the NAL after a successful run through the American Association, where they hoisted back-to-back championships in 2006 and 2007. This season, former TCU Horned Frog Shelby Ford dons Cats' colors for the first time. A third-round pick of the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2006, Ford is expected to anchor the middle of the lineup while scooping up any grounders and tumbleweeds that roll his way at shortstop.
Located just north of downtown, LaGrave Field affords fans shimmering views of the Fort Worth skyline. Game-goers can also scout the antics of Cats' mascot Dodger, whose name is a nod to the team's affiliation with the historic Brooklyn Dodgers of the 1940s and 1950s and the coach’s distant relation, Charles Dickens.
