(KRON) -- Oakland's newest professional sports team has announced the schedule for its inaugural season. The Oakland Ballers baseball team, which will play in the Pioneer League, will play 96 games in a season split into two 48-game halves, the team announced Monday.
The ballers will open the season on the road in Kalispell, Montana when they face the Glacier Range Riders on May 21. The team's first 12 games will all be on the road.
The Ballers home opener in Oakland will be on June 4 against a yet-to-be announced Northern California expansion team. That match-up "will likely be the start of a great regional rivalry," the team said.
