Nashville, TN – The Nashville Sounds Baseball Club has announced its 2020 schedule, complete with home and away game times for all 140 games.

“We’re already looking forward to and planning an exciting 2020 season for the best fans in Minor League Baseball,” said Sounds General Manager Adam Nuse.
“We can’t wait to showcase the new amenities of First Horizon Park in year two of our affiliation with the Texas Rangers.”
Following the season-opening five-game homestand, the Sounds travel to Oklahoma City and Wichita, Kansas for a seven-game road trip. The Dodgers welcome the Sounds for their 2020 Opening Day on Tuesday, April 14th as part of a three-game set.
