News & notes

 The Gateway Grizzlies are one of two Frontier League teams that play in the Chicago suburbs. Sunday's game vs. the Tri-City Valleycats played out as if the teams had rented Wrigley Field for the day.

Of course, it could've also been Coors Field East with all the scoring.

Tri-City racked up 17 runs in the final two innings to come back from a 12-7 deficit in the 7th inning to defeat the Grizzlies, 24-12. Carson McCusker hit 3 home runs for the 'Cats. Pat Adams had a grand slam in the 9 run 8th inning, and the bullpen finally shut the door on the Grizzlies in the final two innings.

Tri-City returns home Tuesday to play the Lake Erie Crushers at 6:30 pm.
===================================================
Conversely, the Albany Dutchmen played a relatively quiet game vs. the Saugerties Stallions. The two teams played on a Sunday night for the 2nd straight week, and Saugerties came away with a 3-2 win.

The Stallions have a YouTube channel, so check the video:


The Dutchmen's games are streamed on Facebook Live when they're at home, and most teams use Facebook for streaming.
