MICK FOLEY APPEARING OPENING DAY: Mick Foley, three-time WWE World Champion, will be making a special appearance at Lackawanna County Stadium on April 14 - the Red Barons home opener vs. Norfolk. The wrestling legend will be throwing out the ceremonial first pitch, make public address announcements and sign autographs. Foley began to compete using the name Cactus Jack in various regions of the United States, before making his way to Japan. Returning to the United States, he joined WCW, and then after a few years, aligned himself with Extreme Championship Wrestling, where Foley's name would become recognized as a cult icon. In 1996 he made it to WWE. In addition, Foley has become a successful author. His 1999 autobiography, "Have a Nice Day" - written in longhand on 760 pages of notebook paper during a European tour - reached No. 1 on the New York Times Bestseller List.

- WWE issued a press release regarding Bret Hart's induction into the hall of fame.

- The U.K. Sun has a story on TNA with comments from Christian and Rhino. Rhino described his final WWE days as like being rejected by a lover: "You go there and you've got so much to give but they've got nothing for
you." He said he talked to Edge after he won the title but can't understand why they took it straight back off him: "I think it's so f-ing stupid. They should have had him and Rob Van Dam at WrestleMania for the belt. But I think Hunter wanted to wrestle for the title. I don't know what is going on with Rob in WWE - TNA would love to have
him! He was off TV for almost a year and they brought him back with hardly any build up. Then I turn on Raw and see him wrestling Snitsky. I just hope it's not Heat or Velocity for him soon."
