I attended the SOuthern Leagues game which drew, despite rain, a healthy
5000. The day before the gane there was an oldtimers game
matching National versus aamerican league oldtimers. The actual
format of the all-star game was well done, an east versus west.
Prior all star matchups were Host team versus all-stars -or-
national affiliates versus american affilaites.
Pringles park is a great facility and even tho jackson TN
is the smallest AA city, it is leading the Southern League in attendance
at a pace ahead of last year's attendance..
One interesting thing about the park, the billboard ads affect the
baqtter's ability to follow the ball giving the West Tenn Diamond Jaxxs
a home field advantage. After looking at the sight lines from the field,
I can see no difference than any other park, except maybe the paint is
glossier.
