Campbellsville University baseball alum Chris Curley will make his first trip to his home state as a Minor League Baseball player this week as the Rome Braves travel to the Lexington Legends June 24-28.

Curley signed with the Atlanta Braves as a post-draft free agent following the 2009 season. He chose to forgo his senior season after helping to lead Campbellsville to the 2009 NAIA World Series while hitting .409 with 19 home runs as a junior. He first reported to the Danville Braves in Virginia last fall, but the season was cut short due to injury.

After attending extended spring training in 2010, Curley reported to the Braves' Single A affiliate in Rome, Ga., in mid-May. Curley collected his first Single A hit in his first at bat, driving in a run in the Rome Braves May 18 win over the Charleston River Dogs. He has struggled a bit since, forcing him to only appear in the Braves' lineup against right-handed hitters. He enters this week's road trip to Lexington hitting .214 with a double, triple and eight RBIs, while looking for his first pro home run.

Tickets for this week's games in Lexington are only $2 for box seats, thanks to a special promotion the Legends had June 10-12. With every win the Legends had that week, this week's box seat ticket was to be reduced by $2 each. Lexington swept the Delmarva Shorebirds in three games making a regular $8 box seat ticket available for $2 for each of the five games that Rome is in town.
