DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – The Daytona Tortugas return to Jackie Robinson Ballpark for the final time during the 2022 regular season for six games starting on Tuesday, September 6, against the Tampa Tarpons, the Florida State League affiliate of the New York Yankees. Among the highlights of the final six contests are a Thirsty Thursday© and Monarch Night on Thursday, First Friday Fireworks and Margaritaville Night on Friday, and our final Bob Ross Bobblehead giveaway and Bark in the Park Night on Saturday.
