Our GM Joe Kubly had the chance to talk with Senator
@BernieSanders
again tonight in Davenport about saving all 160 Minor League Baseball teams.
We are grateful for Senator Sanders leading the way in these talks & all of the Congress members who have taken a stance to save MiLB

We would give you a tour of every closet in our ballpark if that’s what it took.
We aren’t perfect, but far from poor standards. And always willing to make improvements where needed- this season alone, we are debuting two brand new video boards.
Congratulations to Michael Massey, your July 2021 High-A Central Player of the Month! 🏆
He led the league in runs (25) and total bases (67), was second in RBI (28), doubles (9), SLG% (.691), and OPS (1.070), AND third in home runs (8), hits (32), and BA (.330)!

extends his hit streak to 12 games with a first inning single. Bandits put a pair in scoring position with one out, but two strikeouts end the threat. Jairo Solis takes the hill in the bottom half.
