While there's a lot of new rolling out, President of Round Rock Express Chris Almendarez said creating a strong sense of tradition out at Dell Diamond is also a priority.

"Just the 20th year anniversary, I think there's a lot of special things and a lot of memories were made," said Almendarez. "There's a lot of great memories and that's the thing when you walk through the front doors. We want a great experience, but we also want some memories made with whatever family is coming out."

The Express open the home portion of their historic 20th anniversary season for a five-game series against the Nashville Sounds (Texas Rangers affiliate) at Dell Diamond. Fireworks and other special promotions will be a part of Opening Day festivities.
