April '93 Month in Review
The first month of the 1993 season is in the books. After a long off-season and spring training the young men of the BLB took to the field much to the delight of fans across the nation. The first month brought us some surprises (Hartford, Washington, and the entire Bock) and some more of what we are used to (Virginia). With 138 more games to go though it's pretty safe to say it's still anyone's ballgame.
