By Guest Writer Dennis Gronau: Born & raised in Portland, Oregon means not many chances to attend Baseball games. At the young age of 7 I started watching WGN & fell in love with the Chicago Cubs. Watching Harry Carey & Steve Stone broadcasting the games to my living room made it that much more…

By Josh (9 Inning Know It All): When ‘experts’ talk about baseball they often overlook the northwest. It’s always raining up in the northwest and there really isn’t a lot of good baseball up there anyways right? Wrong! I firmly believe that baseball in the northwest is the most underrated locations for America’s pastime in…
I always love going to professional baseball games but I enjoy it even more when I get to go to an entire series. About 4 years ago I went to my first full series, which was an interleague matchup of the Mariners against the Florida Marlins, and really enjoyed that so I have tried to…
