Get to know Community Field

Matt Nelson of KCRG-TV in Cedar Rapids has a video piece up on Community Field, the site of the current series for the Timber Rattlers. Check it out below. And also check out this page for his flickr account of the day in Burlington.

The open:

Community Field in Burlington, Iowa, is the home of the Burlington Bees, the Kansas City Royals affiliate in the Midwest League. It is the ballpark in the smallest community in the country with full season, affiliated, minor league baseball. That is something to be proud of for fans in Burlington. It's not easy to keep a team going these days in a city as small as Burlington (population: 26,839 in the 2000 census).

Matt was at Time Warner Cable Field in April and it looks like his piece on us will debut at his website on July 7.
