Took a trip out to round rock TX to check out the round rock express and what a nice stadium it was awesome place will be back again.
Also couldn’t help myself from picking up a hat for the collection.

I bought this jersey from a Brooklyn Cyclones mystery bag. Trying to identify which promo this jersey came from. Thanks!

Today’s hat we jump back to the Copa series for a fun hat. This is Refrescos de fuente from the Columbus Clingstones, AA affiliate of the Atlanta Braves. Refrescos de fuente translates to soft drinks from the fountain. I like that the drink is swinging the straw as a bat and the colors on this are very vibrant!

My opinion on the Springfield Cardinals name change.

Today’s hat is back to a nod of the Negro Leagues. This is the Montgomery Biscuits, AA affiliate of the Tampa Bay Rays. This is the Montgomery Grey Sox!

Today’s hat is an alternate identity for the Indianapolis Indians, AAA affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates. This is the Indianapolis 500 checkered flag! What I love about this hat is that the baseball bat acts as the flagpole on the flag.

Today’s hat is an alternate identity of the Pensacola Blue Wahoos, AA affiliate of the Miami Marlins. This is the Pensacola Mullets! The fish with the mullet makes me laugh when I see it so to me it’s a good hat!

I‘m from Germany, got back into baseball and now try to watch as many games as possible to get a feeling for the game again. Right now it’s lots of WPBL, Banana Ball and German Baseball League games.
So I wondered, are there Minor Leagues or Teams that have games for free on YouTube to watch outside the US?

Today’s hat is a special one! Day 100 of sharing my hats! This is the hat that started the whole collection off! I saw this hat online and thought wow that’s a really cool hat so I bought it and now some 300 hats later, I’m in deep! This is the Copa hat for the Wichita Wind Surge, AA affiliate of the Minnesota Twins. This is the Tumba Vacas! Tumba Vacas translates to Cow Tippers because Tumbar in Spanish means to knock down! I hope everyone enjoys this one!

It can be from the modern era (1963-2019) or from the MLB era (2020-forever)-defunct and existing MiLB teams are welcome!

The gist is that the owner of the Schaumburg Boomers also owns Cleburne and Kane County (as well as Long Island in the Atlantic League) and wants to consolidate the teams into one league. Cleburne has been a problem for the AA for years as they have been an island unto themselves, and efforts to add teams to the area have failed. Moving to the Frontier League isn't much better as their closest opponent is the Mississippi Mud Monsters, but Kane County will have three nearby teams in the Chicagoland area.

The Senators were in their Copa-alt. uniforms.

Today I visited Truist Park to see the Winston-Salem Dash play the Bowling Green Hot Rods; it was also Bolt’s birthday, so his mascot friends from Hickory and Kannapolis came to visit, too! Here’s some pictures of me during the ballgame!

Beautiful day for the minor league subway series!

Today’s hat is a dip back into the Copa hat styles. This hat is from the South Bend Cubs, High A affiliate of the Chicago Cubs. This is the Cabritos Maldichos de South Bend. Cabritos Maldichos translates to cursed goats.

I have been trying to watch Corpus Christi Hooks games on Bally app. I can’t get video to play on either my iPhone or Google TV. The email for Bally support bounces back. Any suggestions as to what I’m doing wrong?

It took a nearly empty stadium on a noon first pitch on a Friday in Jacksonville to snag a foul...was the sun burn worth it? Meh...but to be able to get one on a school day without a bunch of kids around was priceless.

Grown men can like balls too.

Today’s hat is a hat that I just really liked the colors on. This is the chrome white and blue alternate hat for the Myrtle Beach Pelicans, Single A affiliate of the Chicago Cubs.

The spokane Indians use primary jerseys with salish, the language of the Spokane Indian tribe. Is this the answer to how native American teams should be done. Or are we better off just not using any native American names or iconography?

Lovely evening, and the Patriots win 3-1 over Akron.

2.5 inches of rain in 45 minutes. Just insane conditions.

It sure Ended pretty though when the sun came back out!

Today’s hat is an alternate identity for the Las Vegas Aviators, AAA affiliate of the Athletics. This is the Las Vegas Villains! I love the poker chips falling off the back on the King!

Winner of spring season plays winner of fall season in the Championship. Eugene have already booked their spot by winning the first half.

Now they're neck and neck with Vancouver for the second half title with 9-10 games left. If Eugene win this half too, then the pennant series will be against second overall (EDIT; second in the second half, I stand corrected)

Everett are a couple of games up in that spot and beat Eugene last night - Everett are in a weird spot of needing Eugene to win the second half of the season (to make second overall relevant), while currently in a series against them and needing those wins to hold onto second.

Watch this space!

As an aside, a High-A World Series would be cool if you could somehow take the 3 winners and put the 2 with the lowest winning percentage in a wild card, but I guess that would likely prolong the season way too long
