The Minor Leagues....

Last night, I attended my first minor league baseball game, between the Hudson Valley Renegades and the Batavia Muckdogs. I just love the name of the team, the Muckdogs.

The name Muckdogs identifies the area with its strong agricultural background especially the importance of the rich Elba muck land. The Muckdogs name and logo took off with the public and became known nationwide.

It was quite an event, not expensive, general admission was $4.75 [HK$35] and the kids just loved it.

There are lots of things for the kids to do, we ate pizza, hot dogs and diet sodas and my 2 year-old daughter just loved the big mascot animals wandering around the park. My son has not been exposed to baseball in Hong Kong and now he has become very interested in the sport.
