The quality in low A ball is not good. Yet I find the effort and attitude of the players make a MiLB more enjoyable than watching the Reds.

We have a new field near me in Utica called Jimmy John's Field which is home to four teams in the United Shore Professional Baseball League.

It's basically a league created to allow college baseball players a venue to showcase their abilities in the hopes of getting signed by a major league team.

It's a super nice, family friendly stadium with reasonable ticket, beer and hotdog prices.

The current teams are the Birmingham Bloomfield Beavers

Eastside Diamond Hoppers

Utica Unicorns

Westside Woolly Mammoths
