The Boys of Summer return to Corbett Field

There is still plenty of snow on the ground BUT thanks to artificial turf and a dedicated snow removal team The Boys of Summer will be returning to Corbett Field in Minot tomorrow, March 16th, for the first time in 2022.

This will just be a Minot State University (Beavers) practice but for all the baseball junkies in the community it will be a celebration of the new season.

Living across the street from Corbett Field I am looking forward to seeing this scene once again.

While the thought of a crowd right across the street from your house, the cheers, the crack of a bat, and crowded street parking, I love it! It means Winter has been banished.

Sure, Old Man Winter won't give up easily but for the next 7 months or so I am going to enjoy the company of The Boys of Summer.

I don't take in very many games a year but I just love having the ballpark across the street Ron and Alexandra Seigel . The one and only thing I don't like is that some people figure it's just fine to park across your driveway while they go watch a game.

In the past during Easter recess I saw college kids coming from all over the country looking for some fun along Pacific Coast Highway( highway 1). During the pandemic all state beaches were closed. I wonder how it will turn out this year?

I am guessing that you will see crowds like you have never seen before Sam Shueh . I believe the young adults are more fed-up then anyone over the government overreach that has kept them cooped up for two years.

Hello Bob, I can remember baseball starting March 1 in my high school years and some days it be to cold we had to have practice in the gym.

Until they installed the artificial turf at Corbett Field a few years ago Minot never got to see the college team play a game at home Will Hamm . While I would not want to be one of the boys on the field when the temp is freezing and a stiff wind is blowing I am glad I can sit in the stands covered in blankets.

When baseball starts up again, it feels like the world is right again. Baseball was my first love!

I agree Raymond Henson, eXp Realty . Winter (as always) is way to long up North here but when I here either the ping or crack of a bat it makes hope spring eternal. 😄

Hi Nina Hollander, Broker my love. There is only one thing I do not like about spring... it's a time for lovers and YOU are 1661 miles away 🤩.

Exactly Myrl Jeffcoat . Many of the games at Corbitt Field are free but even when there is a gate fee it's pretty minimal for a couple hours of relaxation.

Hi Bob- this reminds me of going to some of the exhibition games when we lived in Delray Beach. I am happy that things are finally returning to normal in your area.

I like watching baseball, especially when the weather is nice outside. I am part of a group that has season tickets for the Diamondbacks games so we will be picking our games soon.

That sounds great Brian England (The D-Backs). We have a collegiate league here that really brings in a good crowd. It's really a good family time.

Hey Buzz Mackintosh I tried the AR league but it was just to much work for me. I do look forward to hearing the crack of the bat of our semi-pro league and the ping of the aluminum bats the other leagues use.
