Channel Seven’s morning breakfast program
“SUNRISE”
will be paying a visit to Blacktown Olympic Park tomorrow
to spend time with the Australian Baseball Team
on the eve of their all important Olympic Qualifier against South Africa

with Australia’s top baseball talent at 6:01am, 6:25am, 6:55am, 7:25am, 7:55am and 8:25am.


The entire 25 man Australian squad

The Aussie Baseball team begins a ‘best of five’ series against South Africa
on Thursday February 5 through to Monday February 9 (if needed)
