On top of the jerseys, there will be a Q&A with Curtis Pride and he will host a free clinic for people of the deaf community. There will also be a silent inning with sign-language interpreters to help bring the game to those who cannot hear. It sounds like a complete experience and we applaud the Pelicans for bringing awareness to the deaf community. What a night at the ballpark!
