Summer in Minnesota? What is that...second week of July? Short season.

I'm passing through the area in a couple weeks and I'm already cold.

We were at the Bandits game in N. Mankato this summer....
It was a blast!
We got our pics with all the players...Carosone and DJ Sanders were laughin' there butts off at me, trying to take selfies with them...that was only the 2nd time I've taken a selfie...(seriously)...and it showed.
I think I was acting more like a little kid than my DDs were at the game! Emily smashed a HR, and DJ crushed one too, but the outfielder caught it at the 240' fence
I still remember Carosone's walk off Grand Slam in the College World Series... the expression she made when she rounded 3rd base was priceless!
If you get a chance go to a NFP game this summer 2019!

Excited! Makes sense to have the Aussie team hook up with a local team and build that relationship.

They did compete last year but as Spirit
