Rhode Island
Related: About this forumHey! I'm going to the PawSox opener tonight!
Also Sunday.
If you haven't been to a PawSox game, I highly recommend checking one out. Almost as good as MLB, but first row seats are $12, plenty of parking, and cheap beer
(Since I'm a Bay Stater, I posted in the MA group but I figured I'd post here too)

(2,016 posts)That's awesome! I miss my PawSox. Great times in the stands. The last time I went to Pawtucket, I blew off work to catch a game. Sun shining, and 3 homers belted out. (I think they played the Mud Hens, Toledo.)
AAA games rock!
Have fun, Manny - and say 'hi' to my fellow Rhodeys!

Longest game in professional baseball history was played there in April, 1981- Cal Jr and Boggs played on opposite sides.
"MY" hometown Redwings lost.(Of course for the last too many years they usually lose.) :> )
Check out "Bottom of the 33rd."
I'll watch the game in MiLB and look for you..
Have a great time....

(2,016 posts)I remember that day - I was asked to go to that game, but had to earn a paycheck. My neighbor went, and didn't see him for 2 days. Where was he? Seeing the longest game in baseball!
I still kick myself for missing out on history... ugh!

(3,543 posts)I still love minor league baseball but these days my choices are the Beloit Snappers, the Rockford Riverhawks or the Wisconsin Timberrattlers. Still a lot of fun !

(24,324 posts)I get to watch the Batavia Muckdogs (How could you not love a team with a name like that ) Auburn Doubledays, Rochester Redwings, Buffalo Bisons, Syracuse Chiefs.. and a little farther the Binghamton Mets, maybe as far as the Erie Seawolves and the Williamsport Crosscutters.
I enjoy watching the Redwings slide up and down to the Twins and especially follow the better Muckdogs guys climb the ladder towards Cardinal heaven! $7.50 for a box seat.

After this winter, I don't think a nude swim in ice water would feel too cold!
