If you will remember , there has been an exhibition game at Driller Park for
many years, whether it was a Tyler team or not. They obviously have a
Chamber of Commerce who is on the ball and gets this organized and on the
books.
Now you would have to go through TISD to get anything at Mike Carter, and
they wouldn't even respond to the invitation to the meeting about the
possibility of baseball coming back.

WildCatters usually had an exhibition game over there, the Roughnecks never
did.
