The Stars, in their brown, gold and burnt orange uniforms, defeated Salt Lake City, 11-8. Catcher Bruce Bochy, former San Diego Padres manager and current skipper of the San Francisco Giants, hit the first home run in Cashman Field history. The first pitch was delivered by right-hander Andy Hawkins.
     

The heart of the Southern Nevada Sports Hall of Fame lies in our commitment to the future. Our Hall of Fame seeks to pass on the values to succeed to the next generation of young men and women, supporting community outreach programs and contributing scholarship programs that promote diversity, education, and the discipline and perseverance necessary to succeed both in sports and in life.The Southern Nevada Sports Hall of Fame has evolved into what has become a time-honored evening to recognize a select group of individuals who, through their dedication and commitment to sport, have become giants in our community. All proceeds from the event will be donated to various scholarship funds, youth groups, and community outreach projects in Southern Nevada.
