Thursday night (6:30 p.m.) is opening night for the Danville Dans at Danville Stadium. I was there last weekend and the grand old baseball palace (not an overstatement) looks terrific. Most of the grass that was missing in right field last year has grown in. Next year: a new outfield fence.
The biggest change thsi year is that the Dans are playing in a new, expanded league. The Central Illinois Collegiate League is gone, replaced by the Prospect League.
Looking ahead, Friday, June 19 is our annual CUBS (Champaign-Urbana Baseball Stalwarts) Night.
Watch this site for ways to win free tickets to CUBS Night.
I'll be there Thursday night and might be able to post something later that night or Friday morning about the 2009 Dans team.
