A baseball league that is under the radar screen for many is the Atlantic League . It is an 8 team league that has been functioning for a number of years now . It is said to be between Double A and Triple A quality and features numerous former Big League players . Often a recently released big leaguer will use the Atlantic League as a launching pad to reach the big leagues again ! Here is a roster of the participating teams :
1. Long Island Ducks, Dave LaPoint manager,Suffolk Co. Sports Park
2. Bridgeport Bluefish, Willie Upshaw manager, Ballpark at Harbor Yard
3. Somerset Patriots, Sparky Lyle manager, Commerce Bank Ballpark
4. Newark Bears, Tim Raines manager, Riverfront Stadium
5. Camden Riversharks , Von Hayes manager, Campbell's Field
6. S.Maryland Blue Crabs, Butch Hobson manager, Regency Furniture Stadium
7. York Revolution, Andy Etchebarren manager, Sovereign Bank Stadium
8. Lancaster Barnstormers, Tommy Herr manager, Clipper Magazine Stadium
This is very family friendly and entertaining baseball !!! Full of non stop promotions and contests between innings ! I would encourage you to catch a game at any of the league's ballparks !
