After looking at their last two logos, the new one looks spectacular. Baseball America wrote a nice story this past week on the evolution of the Thunder logo.

I was there in the first round of the playoffs and they only used him in the 1st inning. The Greensboro Grasshoppers in Class A Sally League have a batdog named Miss Babe Ruth who gets to do her thing for 3 innings. Congratulations Thunder on the title. But the new logo looks terrible.

I have to tell you, this is an awesome place to watch a game in, let alone play a game in. Trying to jack a ball out in left field takes a lot of power with that 30 foot wall. Anyway, area not withstanding, it's a beautiful ballpark. My adult baseball league had their All Star Game in Waterfront Park this year.

It’s amazing what the success of a baseball team can do for the personality of a city. It doesn’t really matter what league or how big the city is. I offer this as proof that every city should have a baseball team. I think old New York-Penn League towns like Geneva, Watertown, Utica and Elmira who have lost their teams would second that.

Chad Jennings (Scranton beat writer) has a good blog for keeping track of Yankee prospects. Surviving Grady is a Red Sox blog, but the guys mix in a lot of humor. It's fun to go there after a Sox loss. Was watching is good, he’s bit of a pessimist, though. Chad Jennings (Scranton beat writer) has a good blog for keeping track of Yankee prospects.

For some reason, neither The Journal nor the best Yankee blog (this one!) is linked there.

If so, who are they playing??? I drive thru the thunder waterfront park everyday and its about 1/2 mile from where I work.. Its a nice park though and usually gets filled up.. they were also voted the best minor league franchisee for last year.. do they have any playoffs in minors?? If so, who are they playing???
