Thoughts and pictures of my local minor league baseball team the New York Penn League Connecticut Tigers; a Detriot farm team. We'll still be looking at former Navigators/Defenders players along the way....

Went to a baseball game and a football


game broke out instead. Well a day after blowing out the RockCats 13-1 the Defenders found themselves on the other side of a blowout losing 23-9 to the FisherCats tonight. It was 14-3 when I left--hey, season finale of "24" was on. Chris Begg had nothing giving up 8 runs in an inning plus a couple of batters work and Mike Musgrave gave up the other six runs I saw. D-Mac went yard with a two run HR to make it 14-3. It's a long season and you're bound to get a couple of games like those but back to back against different teams is rare. Anyway, they've scored 22 runs in two games which a nice sign and the team is still in first place.
First big bobblehead promo coming up Tuesday; should be interesting how many find their way to eBay.
Misc Fan notes: Eliezer dyed his hair blond. Small crowd for Monday Mania and it' $5 ticket price but another cold and windy night on top of the hill. Didn't see many Buffet fans but the weather was against them.
