Scott Frost hasn’t yet coached a game as Nebraska’s head coach, but the excitement around Frost returning to his alma mater has already reached a fever pitch.

Add another layer to the hype.

The Lincoln Saltdogs, an American Association of Independent Professional Baseball team in Lincoln, will host Scott Frost Night on opening night — May 17 at Haymarket Park.

The first 1,500 fans through the gate that night will receive a free Frost Saltdogs jersey. The first-year Husker head coach will also throw out the first pitch that night.

The promotion is the latest piece of Frost mania, that has included no shortage of graphic T-shirts, signs in downtown Lincoln and other things to mark the return of the head coach to Nebraska.
