Same with me!

Lucky to have 5 teams, 3 MLB associated teams within an hour. Reading Phillies are the closest affiliate to me and I'm pretty excited to see the their rotation at work. Heck, might be better than the Big Club's!

Wilmington (AA for KC) is also close and it'll be interesting to see if Bubba Starling can turn it around. His Defense is stellar but that ain't gonna do it for a High draft pick...

I'm lucky too, the Modesto Nuts (Rockies advanced A) play here, Stockton Ports (A's advanced A) are thirty minutes away, Sacramento River Cats (Giants triple A) about an hour away.
