Eastern League All-Star "Game"

I spent most of yesterday in Norwich, CT at the Eastern League All-Star Game.  The South Division was coached by Akron's Tim Bogar and the Aeros had six players there.   The North Division was coached by CT Defenders coach Dave Machemer.   Dodd Stadium is a pleasant place to watch baseball and the concession prices, relative to most stadiums, are excellent (2 buck hot dogs, 4 dollar 20oz beers!).


Unfortunately, the game was fogged out after three innings.  Since the gates opened hours early, I was able to watch batting practice and get some pictures.  It was so foggy during the Home Run Derby, that you couldn't see any of the balls go over the fence.


Here are the some really crappy videos of AstroCab, Barton, and Brown:
