Joliet, Ill. – June 30, 2020 – The Generals’ 2020 21-game home slate begins with a four-game stand where Joliet welcomes every MCL team except the NWI Oilmen. The Crestwood Panthers visit the Generals eight times in 2020, the most of any MCL team. The Generals close out the 2020 regular season and home slate with a matchup with the MCL Minutemen on Aug. 19. 

The Generals will call Howie Minas Field in Midlothian, Ill. home for all but four games on the 2020 home slate. The field, located at Homan Avenue and 144 Street in Midlothian, Ill., holds significant historical value. Howie Minas Field opened in 1955 when Howie Minas constructed a baseball stadium for the Midlothian White Sox of the National Baseball Congress. Midlothian named the field after him in 1982. The remaining four home games will take place at Central Park in Dyer, Ind.

Currently, 33 games of the 47-game campaign have been announced. Head to http://www.jolietgenerals.com/schedule/ for the official, up-to-date schedule. The remaining 14 away games will be announced soon, including where the Generals will kick off the season on July 4. 

Manager Matt Vitulli looks to lead the Generals to the team’s first MCL playoff appearance in 2020.
