There was a lot to celebrate in Lexington on Friday, April 28.

Not only was it opening night for the Lexington Counter Clocks, formerly known as the Lexington Legends, but it was also Mr. Terry Forcht’s 85th birthday.

Employees, family and friends celebrated along with him at Wild Health Field, where he threw out the first pitch prior to the start of the evening’s contest.

Currently under renovation, the ballpark welcomed close to 3,000 guests on opening night.
