Chris,
I really appreciate your blog. I am a big Brewers fan but only this season have I started following the minor leagues. I live in Milwaukee and cannot make many Rattlers games, and it's sometimes difficult to get up-to-date information regarding the team unless I'm listening to the game online. Thanks for keeping me in the loop!
Thank you for the note. I try.
