It’s a final homestand for a Raptors ballclub that is about to take home the Pioneer Baseball League’s attendance crown for the 28th time in the last 29 seasons.

Ogden and Northern Utah have supported the Raptors to the tune of 147,960 fans over 46 games entering this week, good for an average of 3,217 fans per game. The Boise Hawks — yearly contenders since joining the league, and the only team to wrestle the crown from Ogden since Lindquist Field opened in 1997 — are averaging 3,002 fans per game.

Oakland (2,285) and Billings (2,233) put together strong efforts, and Glacier, given its location, continues to draw well to its new, smaller ballpark at 1,944 fans per game.

The Raptors (47-42 overall, 19-23 second half) won their second straight to close last week with a 12-2 Sunday win at Billings.

Ogden will stage first pitch as usual from Tuesday, Sept. 1, through Saturday, Sept. 6, with 6:30 p.m. starts.

The team’s promotional schedule advertises $2 hot dogs on Wednesday and half-price fountain drinks and domestic beers on Thursday.

Friday is Ogden School Foundation night and is likely to bring a big crowd to downtown to help send off the season.

The season concludes at 1 p.m. Sunday with the team’s usual free food promotion; the price of a Sunday ticket also includes the purchase of several stadium staples.

Both teams are playing for pride, as neither is in playoff contention. But Ogden boasts several of the league’s top performers.

Chief among them is starting pitcher Nico Saltaformaggio, who leads the Pioneer League with 11 wins in 16 starts.

At the plate, Colson Lawrence is in the home run race with 32, trailing only Oakland’s Jeter Ybarra (33) entering the final week. Lawrence is also third in the league with 122 RBIs. (Sam Canton leads the Idaho Falls juggernaut offense with a new league record of 149 RBIs.)

Carmine Lane (.407), Lawrence (.406) and Giuseppe Ferraro-Nahr (.396) are fifth through seventh in batting average. (Billings star AJ Shaver is batting .432 to lead the PBL.)

Chase Valentine is vying for the league’s stolen bases crown; with 43, he’s behind only Emilio Corona of Long Beach (46) with a few games to go.

As for the playoff race, that looks like the Modesto Roadsters (56-34, 29-13) and the Missoula Paddleheads (54-35, 30-12) are in the best position to grab the final two playoff spots.

Boise and Idaho Falls, both four games back of Modesto in the second half, would need a lot of help to make a push into the field — especially because they play each other six times to close the season, meaning one team would need to dominate that series to have a chance of catching Modesto.

Long Beach (63-27) and Billings (62-27) have been the class of the league all season, grabbing playoff spots by going 1-2 in the first half and continuing to pace the league overall.
