FORT WAYNE – Indianapolis Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri and long snapper Matt Overton will be at Parkview Field on Thursday, June 11, when the TinCaps host the Kane County Cougars at 7:05 p.m.

As part of “Colts at Bat,” Vinatieri and Overton will kick the game off with the ceremonial first pitch. The kicker, long snapper, and Colts cheerleaders also will sign autographs for fans.

“We’re excited to partner with the Colts,” said Michael Limmer, TinCaps Vice President – Marketing. “This event says a lot about the Colts organization and their dedication to their fans in Fort Wayne. We can’t wait to have two Pro Bowl NFL players here.”

Vinatieri is a four-time Super Bowl champion and arguably the most famous, and clutch, kicker in NFL history. The 42-year-old, 19-year veteran has played in an NFL-record 30 postseason games and holds the record for most rings by won by a placekicker with four.

After winning three Super Bowls with the Patriots while he played for New England from 1996-2005, Vinatieri joined the Colts in 2006 and promptly won another Super Bowl. He had game-winning kicks in the final seconds of Super Bowl XXXVI and Super Bowl XXXVIII, respectively.

In 2014, Vinatieri made the Pro Bowl for the third time in his career.

Meanwhile, Overton is a former Pro Bowl-er himself, having earned the honor in 2013. Overton has been with the Colts since 2012 after his NFL career began with the Seattle Seahawks in 2007. The Colts signed Overton to an extension in March.
