Kansas City Monarchs were the most successful team in the Negro Leagues. Which was very popular in WW2 since half of the good players were fighting in WW2. Players like Satchel Paige, Ernie Banks, Elston Howard, Quincy Trouppe, all played for Kansas City Monarchs. Later played in MLB. -- since stats from Negro Leagues were integrated by MLB tecently, Toni Stone became the first woman to play in the Negro Leagues. Therefore, also in the MLB.
Hey thanks for doing the American Association I live just a 10 minute walk from from the Goldeyes stadium they have good food with healthy portions and the sightlines are all good and close to the action!!
I still have yet to check out a game up North in Winnipeg. I live in Fargo, ND and I actually work in Video Production with the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks… so I already know what home games are like, would be cool to check out a road game and Winnipeg is definitely one of those stops I would like to check out
7:55 I like the view of the highway. The Chicago Dogs is a top rated mascot/team name. edit: 9:10 we call Winnipeg Winterpeg but I shouldn't laugh cause where I live would have similar climate but we do get less wind here.
One other thing...The Saltdogs nickname for the Lincoln team refers to Salt Creek which runs thru Lincoln and is directly behind the stadium. Right next to it is Nebraska's softball stadium. Memorial Stadium is across I-180 and Pinnacle Bank arena is within walking distance.
Legends Field was the home of Sporting KC back in the late 2000's. It is just to the north of Children's Mercy Park (Sporting's stadium) and Kansas Speedway and across the street from a huge outdoor mall. If I understand the reports correctly, the Chiefs are considering a location just to the west of the stadium for their new stadium.
I live in the Chicago burbs and it's so fun having some teams that are easy to get to. Kane County cougars as well I love thirsty Thursdays. 2.00 for hamms and Highlife at the dogs games. There are teams from other leagues as well. Boomers, Slammers, Thunderbolts.
@@Throwbackdcow The Railroaders refers to the town's history of having a Sante Fe maintenance facility. There are no tracks near the ballpark. But yeah, there are tracks 20 ft. outside of the SteelYard in Gary.
Impact Field is overrated (yeah, my YT profile pic was taken there). It's a nice place to see a game, and definitely a big league vibe when the place is full, but it's overrated. Players don't like it much, either.
Been to several Kane County games when they were still a Single A affiliate, it's a solid venue. Chicago Dogs being right near the highway is great for accessibility, and they have some of the best prices for food and tickets in the area
Kane county cougars was one minor league most popular teams and they throw it all the away when they join this league. They don't have crowds like they used to friday Saturday night they draw 10000 to 15000 now they lucky to draw 6000.
They still draw the most fans in the league. And don't have to be affiliated with some shitty Chicago team. I'd say it's a win. Now if we can bring South Bend into the Association...
I haven't been to a Kane County game in years, but when they were an A Ball team that place would pretty much sell out every weekend. I hope they're still doing so in this independent league.
Cmon, Wide World. Not even going to try to pronounce Oconomowoc?
Prolly wonders why you call a bike trail the “Bug Line “
Newman outdoor field in Fargo ND is a very nice ball park
Let’s go Redhawks!
You should do the ABL (Alaska Baseball League) but include the Alaska Goldpanners (an independent team) too.
Some great ball parks ⚾️
Ok this might be better than a Chicago stadiums video
Please do the stadiums of Trinidad and Tobago
WTF
@@BAKER22-l4u?
Hockey East?

Please do the Pioneer league next because they will have a new team , the Oakland Ballers
Newman outdoor field dimensions where inspired by old yankee stadium, a minor league player who played for fargo played for the Yankees
Cleburne may not be the largest county seat in Texas, but Johnson County, the south of Fort Worth has 180 thousand people...

Fan of this channel PLEASE do AFRICA cities stadiums too😢
Fun fact, Miguel Cabrera, Kyle Schwarber, wilson contreras, and Jazz Chisholm have played for the cougars

But the railcats literally had a freight train sitting right outside the stadium….
And the railroaders
@@Throwbackdcow The Railroaders refers to the town's history of having a Sante Fe maintenance facility. There are no tracks near the ballpark. But yeah, there are tracks 20 ft. outside of the SteelYard in Gary.
@@ThePaulie02 they have a real train right by the front gate but it's off rails and some small versions of trains by the 1st base berm
I was kinda hoping you'd try to pronounce the town Lake County plays in. It's always fun trying to hear people pronounce Oconomowoc.
Please do stadiums of cincinnati
It would be nice if this video was done by somebody who has been to at least one of these ballparks. 🤦♂️
I asked, and I quickly received! Thank you!
Railcats rule

I love it there, but I’d probably take a KC Cougars game over a Dogs game tbh
Players don’t like it because of the dumbass owners.
I never would have guessed that Newman Outdoor Field is outdoors. Good thing they made that clear in the name.
There used to be the Bridgeport Blue Fish but now the ballpark is a music venue that’s for the ALPB which many teams have come and gone.
"Geneva Conventions"
That was brilliant. Well done sir!

cougars games are so fun
Do prospect League stadiums
Day 4 of asking for Detroit to be next
