Victoria Seals Baseball Blog: On Hiatus

On Hiatus

The four musketeers will be attending Baseball Extravaganza XIII this weekend, so you will most likely not see any blog posts relating to the Victoria Seals until Monday.

BBE XIII will be held in Seattle (for the first time) from Friday to Sunday and we'll squeeze in a side trip to see the Tacoma Rainiers on Thursday for a Thirsty Thursday promotion ($2 beers!!). Believe it or not, that's not the cheapest beer for a Thirsty Thursday. The Asheville Tourists (Asheville, NC) offer $1 drafts on Thirsty Thursdays. With the possible exception of Fireworks Night, Thirsty Thursday is the most popular promotion in minor-league baseball. Too bad the members of the temperance movement at Victoria City Hall will most likely never allow a Thirsty Thursday in our fair city.

About This Blog

The Victoria Seals Baseball Blog (VSBB) was founded as an outlet for our opinions, observations and random musings on the Victoria Seals, a defunct team that played in the Golden Baseball League in 2009 and 2010. Now that the team has ceased operations, this blog will post follow-up stories about our beloved Seals and those related to the return of elite level baseball to Victoria.
