Speaking of exhibitions

The Quad Cities River Bandits have scheduled a pre-season game. Against the Cardinals...The Springfield Cardinals:

On Tuesday, the River Bandits made a major announcement signifying a new era in the River Bandits-Cardinals relationship. On April 5, 2009, Quad Cities will host the Double-A Springfield Cardinals at Modern Woodmen Park in what will be the first exhibition game against a Double-A team in the history of Quad-Cities baseball.

That might draw a few Cardinal fans.
