Colorado Rockies shortstop and former Long Beach State All-American Troy Tulowitzki will be the keynote speaker at the team’s annual Leadoff Dinner on Thursday, February 12 at The Grand in Long Beach, starting off a full weekend for Long Beach State baseball fans.<\/span><\/p>\n

Held at the Grand, Troy Tulowitzki will be the keynote speaker for the leadoff dinner which will begin at 6 p.m. with cocktails and dinner at 7 p.m. Tulowitzki exploded onto the Major League scene in 2007, coming just a few votes shy of the National League Rookie of the Year award, while leading the Rockies to their first-ever World Series appearance.<\/span><\/p>\n

The weekend continues on Friday, February 13 with the 8th annual alumni golf tournament, held at Recreation Park Golf Course. Check-in for that event begins at 9:30, and tee-off is set for 11 a.m.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, after their introduction at the leadoff dinner, the 2009 Dirtbags will hit the field on February 14th. Action at Blair Field starts at 11 a.m. with the Alumni game, and then an intrasquad game with the current Long Beach State team will start at 2 p.m. Admission is free for that event.<\/span><\/p>\n
