Back to the minors
For Memorial Day today, Jason and I made a trip up to Lancaster to see the Lancaster Jethawks play the High Desert Mavericks. Because Jason was unsuccessfully trying to round up more people to go, we got a late start and didn't get there until the middle of the 4th inning. We didn't miss any runs, however; the Jethawks scored their first two runs in the bottom of the 4th, two more in the 6th, and three more in the 7th. So it was 7-0 going into the top of the 9th, and the Mavericks managed to mount a rally, getting three runs with 2 outs, then having the bases loaded -- but it was not to be, and the final score was 7-3.
The former Lancaster Municipal Stadium, popularly known as "The Hangar," has succumbed to the naming rights game, and it's now Clear Channel Stadium. It's obvious that Clear Channel needs to associate itself with something good and pure like minor league baseball more than minor league baseball needs to associate itself with Clear Channel.
