Pre-Season game on Wednesday Night!

The 1st Annual Jerry Robertson Classic is Wednesday June 2nd!

The Topeka Golden Giants are proud to announce a special exhibition game to be held on Wednesday June 2nd at 7:10 pm at Lake Shawnee. This event will be the first annual Jerry Robertson Classic, as the Topeka Golden Giants will take on the Washburn University All-Star Alumni team.

Before the game at 6 PM there will be a ceremony to dedicate the big diamond at Lake Shawnee Baseball Complex, Jerry Robertson Field. The Shawnee County Parks and Rec Foundation is honoring Jerry and family with the naming with plans to fund a $250,000 endowment to help maintain the field as a first class baseball facility for high school and college age players.

A suggested donation of $5 will be welcome at the gate. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 pm. Proceeds will be shared equally with the Jerry Robertson endowment fund to preserve the facility for future generations and the Golden Giants Baseball Club.


Opening weekend starts next Friday June 4th!
The Topeka Golden Giants open their 6th season with a bang, as we welcome in the Rockford (Ill.) Foresters from the new Great Plains Baseball League. The night will be sponsored by St. Francis Medical Center and will feature a post-game fireworks show. Be sure to show up early to get the best seats.

Saturday night is Parrish Hotels night at 7:05 pm versus Rockford.

Sunday afternoon at 1:05 pm is Topeka Owls Retro Day, brought to you by Capitol Federal. The Golden Giants will wear Topeka Owls themed uniforms that will be auctioned off after the game. The Golden Giants will finish up their three game set with the Foresters and close a great opening weekend in style.
