Great win by the A's tonight! Emile Brown has been an exciting
addition to the A's and another solid performance by the A's starting
pitching. On the Green Stampede front, the tutoring program has
enjoyed some of its largest classes of students in Stampede history!
Tonight a smaller group came for tutoring, but it was just as vocal
(even though it was very cold this evening). Our next tutoring
session is tomorrow May 6 from 4:30-6:30 and then the game to follow.
