DENVER—June 18, 2008—On Saturday the Denver Outlaws (4-1) of Major League Lacrosse return to INVESCO Field at Mile High to play the Chicago Machine (1-4) at 7:00 pm. The game will be televised on Fox Sports Network-Rocky Mountain on Sunday at 12:30 pm and again on Wednesday, June 25th at 10:30 pm. Following the game, the Celtic Tavern at 1801 Blake Street will host the postgame party.

The Outlaws hope to continue dominating at home as they take on Chicago in the first of three meetings. The following week brings the second meeting when the Outlaws travel to the Windy City. July 26th marks the last regular season game against Chicago, as well as the final home game of the season.

History is on Denver’s side when it comes to playing the Machine. The Outlaws have an all-time record of 5-1 against Chicago, and it doesn’t look like the trend will be reversed this week. Led by Head Coach John Combs, the Machine are currently at the bottom of the Western Conference after their overtime loss to the Barrage last week.

With Denver’s win last Saturday, and Rochester (3-2) and Washington’s loss (3-2), the Outlaws now have the best record in the league at 4-1. Bud Light MVP Brian Langtry received the MLL Offensive Player of the Week for his six point performance against San Francisco. In addition, Denver leads the MLL in shooting percentage (.378), points (92), and two-point markers (4).

The excitement doesn’t stop on Saturday night; Sunday Sessions, presented by U.S. Bank, takes place the following day at INVESCO Field. This free fan fair day begins at 10:00 am where fans should enter through the north tunnel. Fans have an opportunity to pick up tips from the Outlaws, play catch with the players, get autographs, and many more fun activities.

Returning to the Mile High City for the 4th of July, the Outlaws play their next home game against the San Francisco Dragons (1-3) that evening, followed by a high-impact, close-proximity fireworks show. Last week the Outlaws defeated the Dragons, 19-16, in the first of three meetings between the two Western Conference teams.
