I Love 'em
As Britt already said, I like them mostly because they have a Texas League series, particularly a Houston team. I love learning about the local players. You know the Giants would come to town for exhibition games every year. Old articles and box scores can be found through the NY Times archives online. Something about reading about an obscure player like Harry Storch (hit Christy Mathewson pretty well) makes the hobby so much fun. Another member actually has a PC of Mathewson at the ballpark in Galveston, TX during one of their exhibition tours. It's on the "Favorite Card" thread now.
