ATLANTIC LEAGUE
CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES
September 29, 2010
Game One
BRIDGEPORT BLUEFISH
vs.
YORK REVOLUTION
Sovereign Bank Stadium
York, Pennsylvania
I'll be following the series on the BLUEFISH Website
The Bridgeport Bluefish was the first Atlantic League team, and game, I ever attended; some eight or nine years ago. One day I was in dire need of a road trip. I looked for a place that was sufficiently far enough away from the city to satisfy my need for a good drive and a ballgame. I remember time being of the essence and deciding upon Bridgeport. That game started my appreciation for the Atlantic League and it's member teams. The rest is, as they say, a matter of baseball record.
I am a Newark Bears fan first and a Long Island Ducks fan second. That goes strictly according to proximity with me in Brooklyn; naturally. My son, whom accompanies me every so often when the urge strikes has developed a yen for the Somerset Patriots.
I have visited all but two parks/teams at current. YORK and South Maryland hopefully will get a visit from me next season. Last season, Lancaster and the Barnstormers provided me with a weekend well spent.
The truth is my whole Atlantic League experience has been enjoyable since day one.
I have a team in my backyard here in Brooklyn, a team in Staten Island and two bigger clubs in the Bronx and Queens. I frequent them all. Still, I enjoy leaving the city for a "local game". The call of the Atlantic League is strong with me; and I listen........, gladly.
Good luck to both
the YORK REVOLUTION and the BRIDGEPORT BLUEFISH
during this year's Championship Series.
