View from the road




WJPA Radio's Randy Gore provided these photos of Rent One Park, home of the Southern Illinois Miners. The playing surface is the same as in Chillicothe – all turf, no dirt. Frontier League ballparks have come a long way since the league's early days when games were played on high school fields with poor lighting.

Looks like Southern Illinois has the better ballpark and the better team

I agree about the better team, but how can you not like a ball park where after it rains the players look like ducks in the outfield.
The only better entertainment is the Wild Thing Mascot during the 7th inning stretch!
Does that drain you?
