The 2026 Throwback Sunday series
The centerpiece of the season is a three-part throwback series celebrating franchise icons. While Elvis Andrus and Ian Kinsler’s bobbleheads are designed to connect at the base, the series concludes with a special Chris Davis bobble card.

Baseball and space jam in the backyard

Returning favorites and alternate identities
The 2026 season brings back the weekly staples that make Riders Field the place to be:
- Thirsty Thursdays
- Fireworks Friday
- Saturday: Kids Run the Bases (lifting sticks)
- Sundays: Kids Sunday Funday (raising reeds)
We’ll also see the return of the team’s popular alternate identities, including the Corny Dogs, Quesos de Frisco, and the Dallas Black Giants. Co-branded evenings with local sports teams will also return.
Remember: gate giveaways are while supplies last, so be there early!
My wishlist
This is a great show so far, but there is one thing I would like to see: Dollar Hot Dog Night. There’s nothing like a cheap dog in the ballpark to give you that feeling of the good old days.
Another promotion is coming out on Monday, and we’ll update the schedule here as soon as it becomes available!
