RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) -- The Richmond Flying Squirrels' season finale at The Diamond is officially sold out, as of Thursday afternoon.

According to an Aug. 28 release, the Flying Squirrels' final home game on Sept. 14 will finish off the season after four decades of hosting professional baseball at The Diamond in Richmond.

"Millions of people have made memories at The Diamond over the past 40 years," said Flying Squirrels General Manager Anthony Oppermann. "We knew not everyone could attend the final game of the season, which is why it was important to us to turn the entire final homestand into a farewell celebration. This will be a historic week, so don't miss the opportunity to commemorate The Diamond era before we begin a new one at CarMax Park."

Limited tickets are available for the other five games -- Sept. 9 to Sept. 13 at The Diamond on the team's website.
