Baseball and the Fourth of July

Haven't made plans yet for this weekend's Independence Day celebration? What's more American than spending some time at the ball park? And, of course, not everyone can make the trek to a Major League game but may we suggest that the Minor League experience is, in some ways, even more enjoyable? Beyond the fact that it is so much more affordable, there are shorter lines at the concession stands, and the worst seats are probably better than any you've ever had at a big league park. And in most cases there will probably be a nice fireworks show thrown in too boot. Plus, no matter where you live there's probably a game within a short drive. Check out the MiLB schedule for a game near you and enjoy your holiday in the classic American way.
