Monday in the MWL

Wisconsin 7, @Clinton 6 (10 inn) -- A Rattler extra inning win on the last day of the year.

Fort Wayne 6, @South Bend 5 -- Hawks couldn't rally from 6-0 deficit.

West Michigan 1, @Dayton 0 -- A shutout loss to end the year for the Dragons.

@Lansing 5, Southwest Michigan 4 -- The end of the Midwest League franchise in Battle Creek, Michigan is a loss at Lansing. Jeff Karzen gets a bit emotional...

This is it, folks.

Don't take this the wrong way but it's your fault professional baseball will heretofore be referred to in the past tense. With the exception of a fabulous atmosphere of about 5,300 last Thursday for the home finale, C.O. Brown Stadium has felt more like a library than a baseball stadium this season.

You should've cared more. Besides the loyal group of fans, several of whom showed their devotion by driving to Lansing on Monday, not enough people went to games.

It's that simple.


@Quad Cities 10, Burlington 4 -- SWING tune up for the Playoffs with a win.

@Kane County 6, Cedar Rapids 2 -- So does Kane County.

@Beloit 2, Peoria 0 (5 inn) -- Likewise, the Snappers.
