Bear with us. By 2010, we hope to have the funding to take us all the way to the top of the eighth. But when it comes to baseball, Reds fans, you always know the score. We had to eliminate the backstop as well, but we've received assurances from the Midland Indians that we can borrow theirs whenever they're not using it. During batting practice, our men will be hitting Wiffle balls with broomsticks.
Every little savings helps.
Our Reds will look great in their new uniforms, though, even if they do have to dress at home. Yes, we had to leave the home clubhouse on the budget-cutting floor. As for showers, equipment man Bernie Stowe will hose the guys down in the parking lot after the games. We hope you understand. We hope you'll love our new ballpark.
