Solis is there for listing purposes, but of course he won't see any action this season.

Sort of a shame people couldn't get to the field.  Fans could fish and watch a ball game at the same time.

After playing a home game on the road yesterday, they finally have their home opener tonight.  They have built an elevated walk way to allow fans access to the stadium. 

Great promo - It is magnet schedule night.  They have partnered with a store to give away a fridge to put the magnet on.

Thanks, I saw that news shortly after I posted.

Is this a recurrance of his hamstring injury?  Something else?  He's been horribly unlucky with how often he's been hit by the injury bug this year.

Didn't see it posted, but James Nix (JUCO All-American and 35th Round draftee in June) was promoted to Quad Cities from GCL.
