The Pittsburgh Pirates are holding their annual “Star Wars” night on Saturday.

The May the Fourth event will feature costumed characters from the movie roaming the field and stadium. And fans are encouraged to dress up as “Star Wars” characters.

A special Jameson Taillon “Obi Wan” bobblehead doll will be available to the first 20,000 fans at the gate.

After the game a Zambelli fireworks display will light up the Pittsburgh skyline set to music from the movies.

The Pirates, who took two from the Rangers in Texas, are off Thursday before starting a three-game series against the Oakland A’s on Friday. Saturday night’s game starts at 7:05 p.m.
